    I read somewhere (on lemmy) that signal might not be a safe and secure option. and i have deleted my account. 😑

    and i use the openPGP app. is this good enough to protect my missile launch codes?

      As I said, I have reservations about Signal, but I have not found one where I have fewer, so… As to “the” openPGP “app” and literal missile launch codes, it really depends on what exactly that app is (there are many implementations of RFC4880) and on what environment it is running. Most likely it’s adequate for normal people though ;) I use GnuPG 2.x on QubesOS, and OpenKeychain on GrapheneOS, but I’m a cryptology-nerd who enjoys coming across slightly paranoid ;)
