      Everyone saying extra SIM card as solution: Works in some places, but in many countries that's either not possible, not legal, or difficult.https://twitter.com/evacide/status/893295248591474688 …

      Not everyone is comfortable giving strangers their phone number, especially women. https://jilliancyork.com/2017/08/03/i-dont-want-to-give-out-my-phone-number-a-gendered-security-issue/ …

      Signal is great as SMS replacement but we still should seek a wider range of possibilities.

      Also, Signal operates on a shoe string budget. If a tiny bit of that Juicero-type money went to it—think of it as penance—it could do more.

      There are many contexts for which it makes perfect sense—more sense than username. Just shouldn't be the only way.https://twitter.com/chartier/status/893473954102476801 …

      @evacide I don’t get why so many of these messaging apps are built around our phone numbers instead of creating usernames.

          It makes sense for a mass consumer oriented product. Alternative is to stay niche, which is less safe for everyone. https://twitter.com/optouttwice/status/893474584875470848 …

          Yes! Silicon Valley is especially awash with cash. Signal has very modest needs, yet so little funding.https://twitter.com/paulnivin/status/893475807431020544 …

          That's one of the reasons why I donate to Signal. Hope more people will do the same. https://freedom.press/crowdfunding/signal/ …
