I actually like Signal, and would use it a lot more, but don't because of one feature - link previews. I understand the technical reasoning why are they so slow to adopt it, but I (and a group of people I communicate on a daily basis) would probably accept even a half-baked solution like the one on WhatsApp.

You want your encrypted chat application to emit DNS queries to your ISP. As another Signal user, I do not want that. Nor do I want the bloat of this and other features that will make the core functionality worse. Next we'll want Memoji's and animated drawings and fireworks.

My point is, there is already an app for that. Signal has a completely different purpose.
