I'm OOTL, why do people want an alternative to Signal? It thought that was the good app

It's centralized, it doesn't officially allow 3rd-party clients, it requires a phone number, and the desktop app kinda sucks. I use it anyway, but it could be better.

That desktop app really is super hot garbage.
