  God that sucks.

  Why not use SimpleX or Wire or Matrix?

      No phone number needed. Can run directly on a non-phone server.

      Also more secure and trustworthy because it’s open source.

        But Signal is open source..?

        Getting a phone number was relatively cheap and easy, so for a one-off implementation, Signal was an easy choice as it’s what many friends and family already use.
