Can we talk about how Signal's disappearing messages saved my group chat last month?

Honestly, my friend in Berlin runs a small book club that sometimes discusses banned authors. Ngl, their old WhatsApp group got flagged and shut down for 'suspicious activity' after they shared a PDF. I told them to switch to Signal and set messages to vanish after 24 hours. It's been 6 weeks now with zero issues, and they feel safe talking again. Has anyone else found a specific app feature that actually made a difference for a group under pressure?

Glad they found a way to keep talking safely.

Yeah, safe talks are great, @kellyfoster. Just need a safe way to make them actually listen now.

Maybe they need my ex's selective hearing.
