@signalapp Maybe it's a good idea to block new users until server problem is fixed. So we don't risk a total collapse. Otherwise, thanks for a good app.

@signalapp I travel a ton, would it be difficult to get access to my signal if, for example, my linked number is a US one but am on vacation or something outside of the US with a temporary new number? That’s one issue Whatsapp always gave me..

@Peter57570148 @signalapp Yes thats why i installed that but facing issues for more than 12 hours now. I know its because of growing users and load but they should have anticipated that and action should have been quick

Feel really sorry for @signalapp - all that time waiting on folk finally finding a WA alternative - and the system is down for a long time. Telegram still working though :-) #signaldown #SignalApp #telegram

@markus_ottela @neutrondrift @signalapp 2/2 Otherwise every new acquaintance will need an explicit text hand shake? I agree is an unnecessary concern. Also I believe login by username is in the cards (like in Telegram) where phone number is not required.

I understand what it's like to have a large service down. and in the case of Signal, it's the pressure times over 70000 times. Thanks for the swift recovery @signalapp, take a break!

FYI @signalapp : on at least Linux desktop app we are receiving a lot of errors saying "Error iprocessing incoming messages." Some friends of mine have over 10 000 of them caused by one or few messages at max. This said, I am extremely happy about the capacity problems. :D

@signalapp Uff. Reading this reminded me, that I hate people. Everyone should be aware that no service in this world ist prepared for quintupling their users in a matter of a few days! Can everyone just chill and wait? Nobody will die from not being able to send a text for one evening -.-

@LovEcosophy @signalapp @session_app 4.5* not bad for an app that has had some pretty shitty reliability issues up until now.

@signalapp Take your time!! First time I am feeling happy about service being non-available. We want you to come with bang & screw #WhatsApp.

@shyampsunder @ShivAroor @signalapp Interesting, do FB not also have the meta data relating to which users you are communicating with, when and over what time? And your real problem with Signal is the data is too secure for you to dangerously backup....

@signalapp Hello Signal, Totally understandable. Scaling up in such a factor would demand a flock of IT admins to mitigate such a move. I will be waiting patiently. Have been using your service from 2016.

@AppSecBloke @signalapp And will your problems be solved if you don't delete the other app you are 'fleeing' from... It still has all the permissions you were worried about

@signalapp Take your time fixing the problems my friends, privacy is priceless. It's better to take the time needed to fix what it has to be fixed than rush it and putting privacy at risk 👌💪

It’s a bit of a shame that I convinced my family to move to @signalapp and then the service went down (and it’s been down for almost 24h). I’m sure it will be operative soon, but I’m not so sure many people will put up with it.
