I don't want WhatsApp & I avoid the 'stores, so it's F-Droid options for me...

Any opinions on Jami?

I'm also seeing XMPP mentioned in the comments, so I might look at that a bit more...

I found SimpleX Chat to be a fairly decent alternative without phone numbers.

How, in 2024, are people still using TEXTs??

There are so many apps for encrypted messaging, even fricken WhatsApp.

Session is very good and doesn’t require a phone number (like Signal).

I don’t believe Signal requires a phone number anymore

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It does. You just don't need to give it out to communicate anymore
