Cloaked works pretty well for anonymous Signal registration. They give you a VOIP number that actually works on Signal, and you don’t have to give them any personal data to sign up. It also works behind a VPN.

This is workable. Especially if work profile so you can run signal twice. If you use open source signal builds, you can run Molly in the same profile. So it’s pretty trivial to get four different signal clients running in each profile, so you could have eight total on an Android phone.

Just a little inconvenient:)

Not seeing it there.

EDIT: j/k, yes I do. Turns out I just had to open my eyes. Derp.

There are already signal clients that don’t honor the delete request anyway, so from a privacy perspective you cant guarantee delete anyway, so its giving people a false sense of security, at best.

Here is a signal client that lets you ignore deletes: https://github.com/johanw666/Signal-Android … Also, view once messages don’t disappear, use your own map provider, database passphrase, custom backups. I don’t really suggest anyone use this fork, molly.im is better, but its illustrative that capabilities are out there, and its more privacy and security focused to not mislead people about capabilities.
