Here's what WA has that people want in Signal.

> Group admins

> Group calling

I'm actually stopping there because Signal in the last year picked up a lot of other features that WA has and people want (like emojis).

What still could be useful

> Enabling md markup (I'd argue that this is more important to Signal because of the large amount of coders that use it). Note: this is in messenger.

> A better desktop app

> Way to add users without handing out phone numbers (low priority)

As just texting a single person it is just fine. But text is not alone. This needs to be a chat app, not a texting app. Because that's what people want.

> it's really really hard to understand what are those features that people keep arguing about that are missing

Ask them. Use WA. Figure it out. Figure out why non-techie people don't use Signal.
