Does it not give away your identity when you join a Signal group?
settings > privacy > phone number > who can see my number > nobody

Not worried about my phone number so much as my legal name...
No requirement to have your legal name in Signal. Though, I do wish it was possible to set a different name for group chats though. Happy to use my real name with friends and family, but would prefer an alias for group chats.
Exactly.
