Already on it.

Just such a shame that after years of trying to convince friends and family to use signal, I now have to convince them to use something else.

Oh well, that might just be the natural circle of life.

I know, I was also a fan and had to go to friends and family and advise against using Signal after I'd told them years ago how great it was. You're right though, every great application seems the grow until it turns to trash and needs to replaced with something else. Very few apps escape that cycle. VLC is one of the good ones holding out.

This is the beauty of Matrix - you can change your client, or even your server and keep all your contacts!
