I do currently use SimpleX to talk and also calling, but you will never have a long list of people on SimpleX.
I never said or do say to switch only to SimpleX and get rid of Signal, no. For some people, Signal is the mst that they can understand, they don't want to learn anything besides Signal, and I have full support for them with zero criticisms. Right now, my Signal list, although I use Molly, is significantly longer than SimpleX list.
I care more about getting people away from Whatsapp than I do about getting people onto SimpleX. I have no objections to only using Signal. I only argue for complete privacy and also anonymity, SimpleX replaces Signal, Briar, and Session.
I would offer you an invite link if you don't have anyone on SimpleX but I don't want random people on here using it.
