Ask HN: What are some methods to encourage people to move to Signal

2 pointsabhikandoi20004y ago3 comments

A lot of people in my country and especially my friend circle use WhatsApp, where I've witnessed them become addicted to the app because of its status feature. Also I have noticed that my friends admit to being addicted to WhatsApp (because of the 24 hours status thing) and they want to switch but say that since other people only use WhatsApp its hard for them to switch.

WhatsApp is not the problem here.

Most certainly is. Signal doesn't have a status feature to addict people. This ends up with people less addicted to the app.
