Is it still viable to use Signal for privacy in 2026? It’s centralized, and has had many suspicious occurrences in the past.(Unopen source server code, careless whisper exploit which is still active as far as I know, and the whole mobile coin situation.)

Thoughts?

    I think for talking to friends and family it’s fine I think.

    If you’re someone that would get more scrutiny from a goverment organizations because of your activities (journalist, crime boss, sex worker, etc) you might want to use something more secure.

    I have no idea what these more secure applications are.
