No it isn’t to get them on simplex. That’s the tradeoff. Signal is very easy to onboard normies to. And it’s pretty good and secure. The CEO is based. The only problem is you need a phone number to make an account. But after you make the account, you can hide your phone number in the settings and connect using usernames only. Simplex is a little buggy and it’s newer so hasn’t been tested completely. For normies, I’d still say signal is the best choice and is a huge improvement over iMessage, WhatsApp, or messenger.
