Who is the active user base for signal these days? Everyone I knew who was using it dropped off after the SMS debacle, which was a shame.

Edit: Wow some weird haters on HN today. I was honestly curious as an active signal user that was no longer able to use it to message people in North America and had never seen anyone using it in East Asia. Apparently this makes some other signal users very angry.

I still use it, and ask my friends & family to use it as well.

What would you recommend to use instead of Signal?

I have yet to find a replacement that both I like and other people use. Matrix and Session I have yet to find anyone using, telegram seems to be almost entirely bots in my area, and WhatsApp etc are owned by Meta.
