I do my best to cite any claim that I make. I would encourage others to do the same.
-
Oh no, I wasn't aware, sorry for you
Hope they take in new users soon
I got in! I just had to make an account & I got an email a few minutes later. -
That means very little to me. Actions speak louder than words, and it would probably help the development of loops if it was actually open source.
-
I don't send dick pics or plan terrorist attacks, so if voyeurs or Big Gubmint snoop on my texts they'll be disappointed.

SMS is generally free and unlimited with almost any postpaid mobile plan. If you're still paying for SMS then you should switch providers.

Why does software have a political stance?
You want to let them rape your computer? I'm not stopping you.

That seems a little extreme. I would maybe agree if 1) it wasn't being made by the guy who has already got an AGPL project in Pixelfed and 2) it was on open signups. Whilst software is invite-only or closed entirely I don't really see a problem in it not being open-sourced.
You know it says gullible in their ToS?

Sure, just give your data to China and get their ads, who cares.

I do, use Signal if you care about privacy. They are the only game in town when it comes to reasonably secure chat software. Sure, I would prefer a federated alternative but I haven't found one yet that is always end-to-end encrypted, open source, implements forward secrecy, and is user friendly enough to be used by my grandmother.

I can't find its libre software licence text file.

why signal?
Because atm is the most adopted alternative but isn't any better then SimpleX.

Briar is better for particular dangerous situations, SimpleX is a 'more confy' great alternative.

An change your email to protonmail or tutamail. Starve those gmails, outlooks, iCloud’s and etc
Email is a shitty protocol we should abandon
-
Wouldn't Matrix be a better alternative to Signal, since it doesn't need a number and the main/default instance (matrix.org) is based on the EU? Maybe it has a too difficult learning curve to the average user, though
The best number-free protocol is SimpleX atm
