Is it still viable to use Signal for privacy in 2026? It’s centralized, and has had many suspicious occurrences in the past.(Unopen source server code, careless whisper exploit which is still active as far as I know, and the whole mobile coin situation.)

Thoughts?

    Not if you set notifications to not show any content. Other than the sender, of course, which could be problematic depending who sends the message.

      You can also set it to hide the sender, but that’s overkill for my use case
