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

        In what way? I find it exactly the same as Signal but without needing to disclose my phone number (and therefore more anonymous). The user experience, imho, is the same.

      I don’t believe Signal requires a phone number anymore

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