So Signal has stories but I can't figure out what it would be for.
Me either. This seems to be a feature that no one asked for.
Seriously. They could add some other great features and they had to go with stories. I love Signal and use it but the addition of stories was a head scratcher.
According to signal that's what everyone wanted and sms was a small fringe.
I fucking hated Season 8
I’m in the minority I suppose but I really love stories on Signal. I have a lot of friends/family on there and it’s a good way to keep in touch without having to force a notification or expect a response on their end. Maybe it’s a cultural thing too
I agree, that is a good use case for stories. Plus, most other IM apps have them.
I have one person I know on Signal, and zero people I know who use stories outside of Instagram.
