  • MatticusBroad Matt broad (@MatticusBroad) reported

    @signalapp You guys OK? Service is down?

  • bria09 Bria 👯‍♀️ (@bria09) reported

    @signalapp The only thing I don’t get is signal isn’t a replacement for FB. So it makes me freaked out but how does texting with a private app help?

  • DeVoltairine Nazis Deserve The Guillotine 🏴♿️🏴 (@DeVoltairine) reported

    @signalapp anyone else experiencing issues in the U.S.?

  • brn_alchemist Sergei Zyubin (@brn_alchemist) reported

    @onceusername @signalapp Same issue (Europe)

  • Michael_Al_Lo 🛑Michael🛑 (@Michael_Al_Lo) reported

    @signalapp @Linuzifer It would be a shame if there was a tool where everyone could easily sign up and spend a few bucks with their own account, so that Ad companies would need to shut down many different accounts…

  • elrondd_ Ali (@elrondd_) reported

    @signalapp The problem isn't that the picture of what's happening is hazy and opaque, the problem is that the vast majority of people simply don't care their data is being collected.

  • D_Thomas27 Dean Thomas (@D_Thomas27) reported

    @signalapp Can’t you shut down Zuck’s @signalapp account? 👀

  • session_app Session (@session_app) reported

    @shanan2463 @signalapp We have received extensive legal advice on this issue with relation to the relevant legislation (the 'Assistance and Access bill'). It would be illegal for us to be compelled to build a backdoor, and Session runs on the #OxenNetwork (FKA Loki Network) which is decentralised.

  • Cag0940 Cag🏳️‍🌈 (@Cag0940) reported

    @signalapp I would like to move my friend groups over to signal, however, most of them have turkey(+90) phone numbers, and they never received the code to validate their numbers. I believe this is a known problem, is there a general timberline for when this is getting fixed? Thx

  • GlobuleCollant Globule Collant {Vacciné AZ} (@GlobuleCollant) reported

    @signalapp @Hernstburgler Instead of mocking facebook, fix your app so we don't get messages from unknown people faking Amazon or La Poste with logo and all requesting we click a link to get a parcel.

  • yitscar Yitscar (@yitscar) reported

    @signalapp You're not clear on how they closed down the account. Did they accuse you of violating terms ? Was it an arbitrary decision on their part ? Did they give reasons anyway ?

  • Beastielabs BeastieLabs (@Beastielabs) reported

    @signalapp Is there a problem with signal? in my family group a while ago we have not been able to send each other messages and from the windows application it stays connecting

  • davidiwanow David Iwanow 😷 #WearAMask #GetVaccinated (@davidiwanow) reported

    @MattNavarra @hellemans Hmmm @signalapp thinking this could be a crowd sourced project? Can they shut down every personal FB ad account?

  • RaveAlution You can't stop the revolution, Party on 🤩 (@RaveAlution) reported

    @iPlunks @signalapp The pin part is optional, although the reminder is a bit intrusive, but is only there to help users not forget, which I'm sure they would without this feature, unless you use the same pin for everything, or write them down (in case you didn't know these are security risks).
