When I press on some message to forward it, it shows me Random usernames of contacts I don’t know. And it even shows some Mobile Numbers I don’t know. For example, one number starts with +964 that’s Iraq. I’m from Europe tho. These contacts and numbers are from all over the place.

Edit: This only happens on Signal Desktop. If I try to forward a message on Android it only shows my Contacts. And none of these unkown ones.

    Also, Signal’s centralization, sussy shenanigans with mobilecoin and not updating their server app repo for over a year (latter they ceased afterwards iirc but still very detrimental to trust, especially since git reflog manipulation is ridiculously easy) and dependence on proprietary libraries and network services (in case of libraries there are thankfully at least a couple forks without such dependencies). Plus most of their servers that aren’t necessarily CDN being located in glowieland…
