OK, I'm gonna have to tag [@Mer__edith](https://mastodon.world/@Mer__edith ) here, because this is simply not viable.
As far as I can tell, as a user you are platform-locked forever when using Signal - I get that it's for complicated technical reasons but the fact remains that it just isn't long-term sustainable that a user can NEVER decide to move off of whatever OS they happened to start on.
The longer people use this app, the worse this limitation becomes. The time to fix it is now.

- aaaaaaand even transferring that old version of my account isn't an option, because my previous phone is a droid & the other one is an iPhone...
So for reasons entirely, utterly beyond my control I guess I have to start a Signal account entirely from scratch.
Good God, I fucking hate the tech world so much right now.
