Signal is rolling out new settings today to finally let you create a username instead of revealing your phone number to everyone you communicate with. This is probably the most requested feature in Signal’s 10-year history. I tested it out in beta: https://lnkd.in/g8RpByca
This is a nice development to preserve the privacy of numbers. Thanks for sharing.
Great news! Dare I say, it's about time?
Wonderful, positive development.

4moGreat news! “Now you can simply set a username instead, which can be changed or deleted at any time. (Any conversations you've started with the old username will switch over to the new one.)” I am guessing the old username cannot be registered by anyone else or is permanently mapped to the new username? Thanks!
