What is a good and secure alternative?

Keybase didn't ask for your phne number, but it was bought by Zoom a couple months ago and now they are kicking off any 3D printed gun channels.

Threema if you're looking for a mobile app to replace SMS without reliance on a phone number, Element.io if you're looking for more of a chat room based app.

Great, that's more in line with what I'm looking for.

How hard is it to get a burner phone nowadays? I'm sure you can find a homeless guy to straw purchase it for you if you're paranoid.

You have to activate them on an existing line or internet connection.

I thought it was an encrypted MMS system, and was using the sms/mms backhaul on phones. If that's the case, it has to have the number.

Just use Threema. You have to pay a couple bucks for it but it's well worth it.

Every service is going to ask for a phone number, it's basic anti-spam. The question is do they store that number in a manner that connects with with your profile. That's where Parler fucked up.
