Not sure if any of you have encountered the same resistance to using Signal. Some of my cousins refused to use Signal because they are already using “too many chat apps” (e.g. WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, WeChat, Telegram, Line, Snapchat, etc.). To them, Signal will just be another chat app among their numerous other chat apps. I understand that jumping between so many messaging apps imposes some kind of cognitive and maintenance burden. What are some ways to convince such people to use Signal?

    That’s something I don’t really understand: the Signal app is a small app and installing it on your phone takes 30 seconds at most.

    If it’s on om your phone it hardly takes any space and only if you get a message it’ll light up.

    So what’s the difficulty…?

    Yes I have it installed and active on my phone and computer, no - no one is using it… 😂
