    So you would rather have your messages be readable by Facebook that have to work a bit more to get your setup working with Signal. Setup that is only used by 5 people on the planet?

    e2ee encrypted apps that don’t allow 3rd party clients like Signal or WhatsApp

    Because FB messenger does? Everyone I know that uses a bridge to use messenger tell me that they spend a huge amount of time dealing with Facebook trying to ban bots…

      I don’t disagree, but there is the theoretical approach and the pragmatic one. In a “world” where everyone but you uses FB messenger, it is good that FB messenger is somewhat easier to bridge to.

        But not everyone uses Messenger. I have been able to convince many of my friends and family to switch to Signal.
