    They also added stories which, despite what the internet might have you believe, was one of the most popular feature requests on the Signal message boards for many years

    This was weird for me personally. I consider Signal a messaging tool which in my mind is separate from an actual social media app, so it was a bit of a head scratcher for me to see stories as a very popular feature request. I don’t really care about sharing “stories” in that format to my contacts or seeing theirs, but then again that’s just me.

      And I don’t care about what you think about it. If you don’t like it, disable it, and it’ll be like it was never there. Simple as that.

      Like I said before, they created the first and only private and secure social platform. Nothing else like it exists or has existed. Personally I find that super valuable.

        Lol calm down, no one’s trying to fight you over Signal being the best private messaging platform. I was just sharing that it was weird to me how stories was one of the most sought out features from users.

          And I just don’t understand why so many people feel compelled to share their feelings about it any time it is mentioned.
