Why not just use signal like adults?

I have only managed to get one friend on signal. I got my wife on Whatsapp before signal existed (and before Facebook owned Whatsapp) for traveling outside the country, and now she won't switch.

Americans overwhelmingly use SMS (RCS) for everything. And Facebook Messenger ๐Ÿคฎ. I refuse to install that even though I'm sure Whatsapp isn't any better by now.

Nah, on android Whatsapp can't even be used without giving access to all your contacts. Pretty much unusable :(

I ended up just giving up the friends who wouldn't spend 60 seconds of their lives to install an app to talk to me. Those kinds of people may be worth it to some but not me.
