Yeah, probably the majority of my communications, overall, are emails. One of the things I found is that email became a repository for not-very-appealing things - work matters, bills, dealing with disputes, unsolicited emails from some company you once bought something from and entitled, "URGENT - Time's running out!"

So, the idea of a separate channel for personal communications that one might actually enjoy to have was quite appealing. And, of those, I think Signal is the most trustworthy and private, which seems like a plus.

Whats this Whatsapp thing youngins? ;-)
