How to share confidential information? (lemmy.ml)

I'm using Signal, but after I found out that it's not as privacy-friendly as it claims, I'm uneasy about sharing my address there. I trust the person who asked for my address, but not the service. What's a safe way to share? I was thinking of something like a self-destructing pastebin, but surely you have better ideas.

https://1ty.me would be described as a "self-destruting pastebin." I'd generally be careful about what you can put in there (e.g. put partial information in it with no context) but it seems to do the job.

But the real answer is probably PGP/GPG.
