This morning, my entire family either switched or said they already had a Signal account. Now we have a family Signal chat.

I expected resistance, not compliance! I'm very happy.

I was getting my family on board and then a week later Signal dropped SMS/MMS support and my family uninstalled Signal. Frustrating.

Maybe I can try again with...everything going on.

    rip. That is probably the biggest feature that was taken away and that I miss from any app ever

    I was loudly opposed on their repo but ideology won over practicality. I think it severely hampered their adoption rates letting perfect be the enemy of good enough.

    I get their reasoning but I think it was quite obvious when I was talking to someone via secure Signal infra vs SMS.
