Signal
A messenger that encrypts everything and collects almost nothing.
What it is
Signal is an encrypted messenger run by a nonprofit. Chats, calls, and disappearing messages are the product. There are no ads and no channels-for-growth. Groups are smaller than Telegram. Use it when the conversation should not live on someone else’s growth dashboard.
