@alissaazar Yeah we were actually planning to make a guide exactly like this, including all the settings to change, before we saw EFF had made one that was perfect. We're still hoping to eventually share some other accessible straightforward guides for similar topics though :)
@alissaazar Yeah it should maybe be more front and center :( Or at least switched to the more secure option by default
EFF has a guide that lists out good security settings for Signal. It's nice because a lot of simple guides for secure apps don't always explain in simple terms what settings you should probably change: https://ssd.eff.org/module/how-to-use-signal#hide-your-ip-address-from-another-caller
