I agree about Signal and it's my preferred method of one-on-one conversations with friends and a few group chats with those same friends. The problem with Signal is it doesn't have close parity with Discord features, and I shit you not, people get scared when I suggest Signal because "only drug dealers and terrorists use it." [1/2]

@trashpandaqc But I do agree I wish we could just all move to Signal, use for chat, use jitsi for gaming/stream, etc.,
I went with Stoat as its the one most folks seem to be mentioning and making accounts for.
But it definitely is not fully developed yet. There's also no federation yet, so if you self-host it will require users to make a new account rather than simply using an existing one. So I went with the main stoat server for now instead of self-hosting. [2/2]
