Fair, let me buy a new phone to talk to one person instead.

Can signal interact with SMS? I felt like I had issues with that when I used it a couple years ago. May have been me.

[-] KLISHDFSDF@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 months ago

Used to but not anymore. Anything sent over Signal is guaranteed to be secure. SMS/RCS doesn't provide any guarantees as SMS is not encrypted by default and RCS clients are all closed-source.

I wish there was like a way to just have a 1-to-1 voice conversation with someone on my phone and it be universally supported across all phones.

Yeah, like a telephone call. But, not a telephone call.

[-] JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago

Isn't a telephone call supported on all phones? If it isn't, then nothing is.

[-] limerod@reddthat.com 3 points 6 months ago

Oops, I did not add a "/s" because, I assumed both yours and the comment you had replied to were sarcasm. I missed the question mark on your comment. Phone calls are universal on every device supporting a compatible network (2G, LTE, 5G, etc).
