    Signal is one of those apps that is good because it is popular and old.

    However, they need to step up there game if they want to compete with other messagers.

          I use Jami daily. The pro is that it is completely decentralised: it doesn’t need a server to run, all communications are over DHT. The cons is that not all messages are delivered instantly, and both sender and recipient need to be online at the same time.
