Tell this to my family who thinks it is the most revolutionary piece of technology ever created and shun me to speak out. :(
Signal has group messaging too. Even has usernames.
Send out messages… “hey install this privacy messaging app.”
Then start making groups then start sending jokes and funny funny videos on the group messaging channels.
Must people will actually do their research when they see it and install it initially.
It’s when you try to get people on it with one on one texting is when i find it the most difficult for adoption because you’re the only person they will use it with.
Update:
Also, if you have maga friendly family that you still connect with (doesn’t sound like the case for you if you’re outside the US), just remind them that it’s Trump’s favorite messaging tool. Just don’t invite the bad guys on to your channel then everything is daiseys.
Will they though? Do you know most people? I doubt most people will do research. I think a large share of Lemmers will do the research. But we can be a different kind of people in certain aspects.
I’m my experience, Yes. I just say it’s privacy oriented and when I say research, basically they will look up a search result or 2 and call it a day.
It’s still not a silver bullet. People will text me on sms and I text back on signal. They start to get the picture.
But getting people on group chats are key. Still a long way to go because they aren’t going through all this strategies when they create groups in other friends groups.
Anecdotal evidence might be uplifting but, alas, not really general proof. But I’m really glad you found a way to get people to switch! I see your persistence and it’s impressive. ✊
Tried that 3 years and got called out as paranoid. 🥲
