Comment on Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp

Yeah, but Threema has basically no momentum behind it at all at this point.
I’m putting my social capital behind the option that currently stands the most chance of beating out Whatsapp

Threema has a pretty big momentum in some countries.

  Then by all means keep that momentum going. I’m just looking at this from a Dutch perspective.

    You can help making it stronger. That’s what I did in Germany: if people want to contact me, I usually give them my Threema ID first, everything else comes later.

    But I my goal is not to move to Threema, my goal is to move away from Whatsapp.
    Signal fits the bill while expending far less social capital convincing people to use it.
