That's a glowing recommendation of Signal. And a good reminder to donate. I'm doing it right now.
Friendly reminder that Signal on Android contains proprietary code (google play services), and the server software is rumored to be closed now and/or not what they are actually using due to a lack of updates for a prolonged period. Of course it's just a rumor and I have no way to verify that, but thought it was worth mentioning (hope this doesn't count as FUD).
