Signal uses your phone # so it's not private.

What else is out there.

Only post a reply if you want other people to reply for good solid info and only if you know what you're talking about.

Thanks!

Setup your own server and run something self hosted. Things like Matrix.

Only way to be sure you're safe is to run it yourself. I run all kinds of stuff on my home server, not that function (yet) but plenty of others.

but it uses your phone #. That's a big no no in my opinion.

Don't know what to tell you man. Either have to host your own, or setup on the best option you can find. Lots of people say it's the most secure thing out there....
