I'll defend Signal here. This is all about your threat model:

My threat model includes:

- kids in my house

- Facebook selling my data to insurance companies

- future employers googling me

- etc

It does not include:

- NSA

- local police (in 2018)

I'll still try to give away as little as possible as while I trust local authorities now I've no reason to be sure I can trust them in 5, 10 or 20 years (see Turkey).

In my case Signal seems reasonable for some things and for now.

Personally I'm also annoying all crypto experts here by using Telegram for some communication and I might even use postcards for other communication (and there might even be communication channels I use but never talk about).
