Comment on Signal cross devices

The standard signal desktop client needs to connect every 30 days, or it will rotate through its keys needing to be reconnected.
Molly for Android, will allow you to run multiple signal instances on multiples Android devices, that might be an option.
You could use a beeper extension, to access signal through matrix on your computer.
If you just need to be able to pass messages between your computer and phone, you could use session, but I don’t know your use case

What is “session”?

It’s a fork of signal, that doesn’t require a phone numbers, and uses a onion network to send messages. It’s not as secure as signal, but it’s easy as a copy paste buffer between your phone and your computer, if that’s your use case

Thanks. So, it is basically another messenger not compatible with signal.

Correct. That’s why in my original post, I said depending on your use case, if you just need to pass messages between your phone and your computer, it could be sufficient for you.
