@blackfire Basically, if you sign up for Axolotl using the same number, it breaks your Signal account.

@blackfire Hmm, actually, having re-read it, I’m not so sure. It may be that what it breaks is the ability to use Signal’s own clients. It might be that if you use Axolotl everywhere (mobile + desktop), it’s fine. They call it a *client* so I’m assuming it works with Signal’s own servers. What worries me is that Signal has been hostile to anyone else making anything for Signal, period. So even if this is the case, they might break it on purpose. (And maybe they did? github.com/nanu-c/axolotl/issu)

@blackfire Update: axolotl apparently doesn't work on Postmarket OS according to this: wiki.postmarketos.org/index.ph
