Threema seems to solve a problem signal has that is it does'nt need a phone number to open account . But i haven't used any of them so can't say . (If anyone wanna know i use telgram foss which is a debloated fork of the original client)
Doesn't signal now have username support? I thought i saw it released a week or so ago.
It still needs a phone number for registration. You just don't need to share it with people you want to talk with.
You can use Session (getsession.org) without any phone number. It is based somewhat on the Signal code base, and it's a decent alternative for some.
