For example, on WhatsApp, use the whole 25 character limit for profile name. Examples:

Bob Moved To Signal.org

Alice MovedTo Signal.org

CharlieMovedTo Signal.org

Say Signal.org, not Signal, because they won’t know it’s an app.

Use your about section too. Same on Discord, Steam, Instagram, etc.

    Neat idea, or, you could just tell them directly and be like “hey I’m not gonna respond here due to [reasons], come find me on signal if ya wanna chat”

    People are usually more engaged when you communicate to them directly

      Imagine not trying to fight network effects because it’s “kinda cringe”. Of all the reasons not to do it, this screams “I’m insecure” the loudest.

        I imagined it and felt more secure in not proselytizing.

        “Attention all, I went somewhere else!” OK love that for you.

    I thought people had been moving OFF signal lately?

    Personally, I’m on signal, but never signed up for a Meta property because, well, it was obvious from the start that they had bad privacy controls that depended only on corporate promises.
