It works, on every OS, seamlessly, for instant messaging (which is all I use it for).

I use multiple devices throughout the day, and all messages show up instantly on every device, while supporting file transfers, etc.

It just works.

Signal is like using SMS. The UI sucks. And no sync between devices. I appreciate what they're trying to do (which is why sync between devices is challenging), but I can't get anyone to use it anymore since they dropped SMS support.
