It's a great piece of software, so people love it.

But the sometimes uncritical love people have for it doesn't help when it has issues.

The main categories of people I've encountered who aren't absolute Signal fans are:

* People who don't want to give out their phone number to random men.

* People who weren't impressed by Signal's security issues coming up at the same time that it was being pushed as the replacement for GPG.
