       @siderea > I have two Signal accounts, and one of them ... has been getting a spam message on average every 15 minutes around the clock starting about a day ago, each time from another accountJust as well Signal demands phone numbers and doesn't interoperate with other encrypted chat services over a common protocol, because that makes it easy for Signal admins to make sure every sign up is a human and prevents spam, eh?

       @strypey @siderea This is easily solved by hiding your phone number from discoverability, which #signal rolled out a year ago. If you're joining random groups of people you don't actually know, that is probably contributing to the problem, but that's on you.https://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/6712070553754-Phone-Number-Privacy-and-Usernames
