At least one user had their Signal number re-registered by an attacker.
This is probably a good time to remind everyone to set up the registration lock.
Am I missing something or is this setting not available on Android?
I found it. It's in the Account settings, under pin settings.
This is old news though?Never mindThis post is a year old
Yes, exactlyMy bad, you meant the Lemmy post, didn't notice that, now I get what is happening
You can care about privacy, or you can ask a phone number during sign up. Those things are mutually exclusive.
Don't use Signal you care about privacy.
Don't let perfection be the enemy of good. All my friends and family use Signal, it was a multi-year effort to pull that off. Signal will roll out usernames faster than the tide will turn, so let's take our wins and learn to be better.
Yhea.
I can almost exclusively chat with my social circle with signal now, been using it since 8-9 years.
I've tried xmpp, matrix and some other. Signal is the only one that stuck, it's not perfect but it's fucking fine from my perspective.
You're conflating privacy with anonymity. Signal is not anonymous, but it is private.
