That it is expected to just give out your number to random people, be it work or organizations. I don't want you calling or texting me, thank you very much.
this was my gripe with everyone wanting to use signal. like, no i don't want to have to maintain a whole other phone number just so i can keep my normal phone number private, i'd rather just use something that doesn't require phone number in the first place.
Doesn't anything that doesn't have access to your phone number have to use data?
i guess so, i just prefer to use computer more than phone generally (personal quirk tbh), i do understand that's not a possibility for some situations/people tho!
