When I press on some message to forward it, it shows me Random usernames of contacts I don’t know. And it even shows some Mobile Numbers I don’t know. For example, one number starts with +964 that’s Iraq. I’m from Europe tho. These contacts and numbers are from all over the place.

Edit: This only happens on Signal Desktop. If I try to forward a message on Android it only shows my Contacts. And none of these unkown ones.

    No worries, it seems like you understand perfectly - I was just reflecting on the downvotes above.

    I like it here because the people often seem real, and the voting generally seems (to me, anyway) to follow more of a meritocratic pattern than whatever the fuck has been going on at the other place for the last ten or more years.

    We should probably try to really understand these differences so we might get better at designing communities that are actually sustainable. Maybe I am just getting old - I’m tired of starting over, I’m tired of watching great communities self-destruct.
