@signalapp The big problem is, that all my friends use WhatsApp and nearly no one Signal... But I hope, that they also switch to Signal. Sadly I have to stick at WhatsApp at the moment. (sorry for my bad english)

@RealGlenMerlin @signalapp People do like to create them for their peers, so if it's something that can be shared over E2EE, then it's doing what they want it to do, and doesn't require handing data to the service provider. The only real question is, is it really necessary for fun experience.

Looking likely that I'll be walking away from #WhatsApp - inevitable really, free service needs to be paid for somehow. While I am confident of the tech/ethos surrounding @signalapp I do wonder how they are making money to continue operating. Will they need to change models too?

Is it just me or is @signalapp slow in India? I hope @signalapp resolves the issues caused by huge shift of users from WhatsApp to Signal

@SharabSalam @ThatHappyDudee @signalapp Nope. They can easily get bought out, have no encryption by default and if you enable it, its still homemade and terrible. USE SIGNAL

@signalapp I understand "Signal can't fix an Android OS problem." But why is Signal (seemingly mainly via Moxie) being so obstinate against trying to educate its vulnerable users against a possible threat vector? 3/3

@jenvgeorge @signalapp On android I think, you can fix notifications from the app, newer versions of android will need a trip to Android settings. Make sure you have notifications enabled for signal. Without notifications enables you will only get new messages when you physically open the app.

@Syenta1 @signalapp @WhatsApp I’ve never had an issue ringing the other person. If both have had issues it’s probably your network. Are you behind CGNAT? If so, try switching signal to relay mode

@signalapp You have ability to assign music files/ringtones to calls, but not text messages? We use Whatsapp for 24x7 on-call and need to know when a text comes in. The array of "blip" noises doesn't cut it. Being down last Friday/Saturday undermines your credibility..

@kuoirad @SrishtiJo @signalapp Alice has a button in Signal to block Bob indefinitely. The point is that you’re presenting a *very* marginal case that supposedly Signal has to accommodate for (while already providing the tools to make it a non-issue) while negatively impacting the whole user base.

@signalapp The biggest problem is, that some people doesn't care about their privacy and don't switch to signal. Other people do not wan't to have two messengers to be still able to write with those people and then they don't download it either.
