   Uncle just contacted me on Signal out of the blue

     @Hyolobrika did you connect on signal before or was he just able to find you using some other contact method?

     @Hyolobrika I always thought you needed to have a signal number. I didn't realize you could find people on the network using their real number too. I've never used it myself. I played around with session a few years ago which I was led to believe is running a similar protocol minus the phone number stuff.

     We were emailing before when I suggested Signal. He was resistant to the idea which was why I was surprised.
     He must have my phone number.
