Anyone know of any alternatives with similar functionality?
Signal has stories. Never seen anyone use them though.
telegram has “secret chats” that let you set a self destruct timer for all messages sent in those chats. i don’t know of many other alternatives. and even telegram isn’t a drop in replacement, but it could work, depending on what you’re looking for
Just use Signal with disappearing messages feature turned on?
that sounds like a better choice to be honest. i haven’t used signal much and i didn’t know they supported that sort of thing
