    I found the hardest part was convincing people to move away from the incumbents such as WhatsApp / FBM etc as all their contacts / friends / family were already using those platforms.

      Same, I tried to move to Signal a couple years ago, but I couldn’t get anybody except one friend to follow, so I gave up on it. I would try again, but I know it wouldn’t go any different, yet.
