Recently, the Prav app was released in F-droid. In this application, registration is by phone number.

What do you think about this?

Most users care more about contact discovery than privacy so it makes sense for them to implement it and unlike Signal, it uses #xmpp so everyone has the freedom to use any other app that doesn't require a phone number and you are still able communicate with everyone on Prav.

I think that Prav can be recommended to friends who are used to registering for different services using a number. Such people are not accustomed to unnecessary steps during registration.
