Wow, people really use Signal differently. Currently, the only pinned chat I have is with my fiancée, and I don't think I've ever had more than two pinned chats at a time.
How would you manage that? With that many, wouldn't you need a kind of super pin to keep track within the pinned chats? I'm honestly just very curious.

As for Signal filling up the chat list. That really is kind of annoying (not too much because I simply do not scroll down that far). However, often the "New chat" button feels really useless because everyone is already in the list for some reason. For example, the "Is using Signal" (even if they are not new) and "New security number" messages add people to the list. Why Signal? Why?
