I don't use Signal to message strangers, only contacts who I have phone numbers of. Seems like that's the use case for most messaging apps like Whatsapp and iMessage that Signal was designed to "compete" with. Signal is a private messaging app, not an anonymous messaging app. A worthwhile distinction with very different (though overlapping) target audiences.
