Try Matrix. It’s a hair more complex than Signal but it has a lot more features- closer to Discord than Signal. Beeper.com is based on it- when they finally open the registration floodgates that will probably be the one to use. It’s just Matrix (fully federated) with hosted bridges to a few popular chat networks. And that integration is enough of a ‘carrot’ to persuade a lot of people to move.
I feel your pain. I tried to move my friend group to signal. They were fine with trying it out except one guy who just refused. Since he needed to be part of us planning things everyone just ended up using fb messenger anyways

Tried a matrix instance, again no one interested to move from Discord, which is another platform I’d happily never use again.
