Second Whatsapp group that has been switched over to @signalapp in one week, without the initiative coming from the house geek, being me. Lovely!

I get the impression that most people don't understand how important metadata such as phone numbers is when it comes to privacy.

For example, by requiring phone numbers, Signal, despite its good encryption, inherently builds a social graph. The server operators, or anyone who gets that data, can see a map of who is talking to whom. The content is secure, but the connections are not.

Goed nieuws voor de privacy van iedereen!👍

Er is binnen de EU geen meerderheid gevonden voor #chatcontrole en het voorstel zal niet meer in stemming worden gebracht op 14 oktober.

Voorlopig is chatcontrole dus van de baan en blijft #Signal gewoon in de EU.

Does protecting children justify snooping on private messages? That is the sensitive question facing EU countries Wednesday as they wrangle over a push to combat child sexual abuse material online. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/08/world/politics/eu-child-protection-privacy/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #privacy #socialnetworks #apps #signal #whatsapp #privacy #childabuse #eu #europe

How many people here use Signal? I recently downloaded, but rarely use it.

It's a shame as it's a really awesome app

ci risiamo: la #Danimarca spinge di brutto per la sorveglianza di massa di #ChatControl, che ci distruggerà la possibilità di proteggere le nostre comunicazioni dallo spionaggio

#Signal ha già annunciato che lascerà l'EU, se passa

My 88 year-old geeky dad convinced his Tai Chi Chuan teacher last Friday to replace the class’ WhatsApp group by a #Signal group, and she did today!
He talked about the difference of approach to #privacy and the greed of exploitation of personal data by Meta, and that Signal was the only privacy-preserving one. Well done! I am very proud of him 💙

Signal Messenger is a really good app.

Full stop.

But it's preventing me from adopting a Linux Phone.

I can't get away from iOS or Google because of Signal.

(and "degoogled" AOSP with sideloaded Signal doesn't make sense to me. I can't sort it out. I'm trying to.)

Looking at who I talk to on Signal, I wonder if I can get another end-to-end encrypted messaging app that compares to Signal that would run on a Linux phone and that I could migrate all of my friends and family over onto (so it would have to be crossplatform with iOS and Android.)

Anyone have any recommendations (from personal experience. I'm doing lots of DuckDuckGo searches and wading through AI slop right now).
