Have they fixed the problem where you have to use your phone number as your ID?
Cos that's what's stopping me signing up. I refuse to use my phone number as my ID for a service that isn't actually carried over SMS or phone calls.
WhatsApp and Telegram become this big, including less recognized Signal, because they use phone numbers.
It won't be changed, ever.
