@PurplePenguin - just for fun, have installed Signal. Might see if I can get my brother on it... not sure that's going to persuade the rest of the world to switch over though. But it would be a start.

The Wednesday Pubrun is in the irritating position of having to use both Wotzap and Signal to communicate with its not vast membership.

That's where it gets annoying. Somewhat surprisingly all my uni student contacts are active on WA even if they barely use FB. None of them have asked to use Signal (either the app or the toothpaste).

Ha, I don't have any non-public communication with that lot. If they are going to cyber-stalk me, they have to do it publicly.

You're thinking about this all wrong. You are an influencer. You should be getting freebies and promoting stuff with kick backs, but clearly you're above that, so you should simply promote good stuff with a kick back for the world.

St Brian of Die. Hmm, that's got a certain ring about it.

Signal installed. Friend who won't use WA found me on it. Not sure how though. I'll just leave it there and see what happens, but unlikely to supplant WA for the foreseeable. So no sainthood yet.

If you let it access your contacts, you can see who else has it. Interestingly, I used to only have two people in the list, and it's now grown quite a bit.

Yeah, just found that, thanks. Very spotty, but about 50 in there, though some of them I've not contacted for years.
