Well it would be better if a phone number wasn’t required for registration but it’s still much better than nothing
Would be much harder to fight spam without phone numbers, unfortunately.

Usernames will (hopefully?) change that tho!
Actually yes. I forgot what I said in the previous comment lol
Let’s go!!!
Celebrate 🥳
Will you be able to sign up on the web without a phone number and never need the app? My friend doesn’t want to install the signal app but would be happy to use the website, if there was one.

So if you’ve had an account attached to a phone number, and you want to switch to a username.
How does that work?
Presumably your username would/could be linked to your phone number-account, right?
You still need the Number for verificartion purposes.
The Username can be given out to people you don’t want to give your phone number to to hide it, but you still need it.
It will be like Telegram Username system
You don’t “switch” to a username. Think of a username like a phone number alias that you can change. Username is kind of a misnomer
