    I’d consider using them if I didn’t need to use a phone number to register. My friends and family stick with Briar as a result.

      Hey man, if you can convince anyone to use Briar, do that. I have better luck getting people to use Signal because it’s way more popular and easier to sign up. And if I want to know if someone uses it, I can find out instantly.

        I have a little pull in my group of friends. I’ve got 11 kids and I make them use Briar (SMS is removed from the phones) and so their friends end-up getting Briar and then their friends’ parents have also gotten it. So we have a nice little circle of people using it.
