What security issues does Signal have?
There are two legitimate concerns about Signal: they use real phone numbers as identifiers, and you have to trust Signal as the server operator as they don't allow their client to be used with other servers. While the server software is also open source, you have to trust that they're running the same version in production.

I'd argue another concern is Signal hosting data in the U.S.A. rather than a country with stronger data privacy laws and one that isn't part of fourteen eyes. The phone number requirement is my biggest issue though.
