Caffeine is 100% in there.

Which is exactly what you want for a reliable compute box.

I want none of this stuff in a messaging app, it's not a social media platform.

Agreed. If all you need is glorified SMS replacement, Signal is the way to go.

Indeed, and Signal has been marketed from day one as a drop in SMS replacement. Initially it even used SMS as the transport for encrypted messages. it was literally called "TextSecure". This is why I have always found the attacks on it using phone numbers to be amusing.

Fine, then you can go on using Signal.

I am happy with that.

My point wasn't about that but about those people who won't let the rest of us use one or more other messengers.

How secure something is doesn't change based on the threat model.

Why do you care what other people are doing? If it's important they'll tell you about it.

I just had to rotate numbers and get issued a new card recently after my normal replacement one didn't show up in the mail. The teller at my bank said they had dropped embossed cards because no one took rubs of cards (besides people stealing them) these days and that was the reasoning behind having embossed cards in the first place.

This behavior design choice is exactly why I use caffeine :)
