Don't give people your phone number. Afaik signal now works without it.

I am trying not to leak my data plan number to others, by for example accidentially tapping call back with the wrong SIM.
In America, there is nothing that allows you to make that call/text to share that number for tablets. So I don’t see why this isn’t already a thing
