Trust me, I push Signal hard and even donate to it monthly. As I'm sure many of you know, there are always a few contacts who unfortunately refuse to use it.

In this case: do you prefer to use insecure SMS in something like QUIK SMS or Fossify Messages, or do you prefer to bite the Google bullet to get end-to-end encrypted messages (even if the metadata isn't encrypted)?

I can see good arguments for both sides, so I am curious what Lemmy's take is.

Well if I only get those two options it'd be SMS because I don't do anything interesting enough for a government to spy on, but Google would benefit in knowing my contacts.

But the real answer would be, I would not message that person anymore.
