@oddynz @moxie @signalapp Sorry dude, not trying to rain on your parade, more just my own feeling down about the state of things 😔

there’s a fair amount of work in this, as everything on Open Data Directive, ironically, needs to be FOI’d and potentially it impacts every public body currently selling/withholding/redacting public data will setup a @signalapp group for anyone who wants to help, let me know

@IanColdwater @signalapp If anyone has this problem on Android, it is usually the "smart notifications" feature which tries to guess what notifications you actually want and drops the rest. Turn it off, it sucks.

@alexstamos @CaseyNewton @signalapp Honestly I'm somewhat hoping it'll blow up, but only insofar that I really really really dislike yet another otherwise great piece of technology dragging itself down with crypto currency bullshit. If they fail because of this, it might be a good signal (pun intended) to others.

@FrankiesaysR @signalapp @WhatsApp The bureau has bent and straight up broken laws regarding search $ seizure, privacy, and who knows what else. Former LE with a masters in intelligence, I’m very familiar with lawful search. I called the FISA fraud with the Steele dossier in grad school. Eyes wide open my man.

Problem 1. /e/OS uses it's own app repo, and it has an older version of @signalapp. Which cannot import my backup (made with a newer version). So I can't import my chats and media from Signal. This is a problem that stops me from using it. I'll share some screenshots though.

@cuan_knaggs @IanColdwater @signalapp I did that and it didn't really fix the problem, it actually made it worse by randomly adding severe lag to normal, unencrypted messages.

I use @signalapp pretty much every day of my life. I _really_ wish Signal wasn't going further and further down the cryptocurrency insanity hole. We might need an alternative to Signal that is content to remain just messaging, and never bolt on imaginary internet money BS.

Access Now
(@accessnow) reported
Kazakhstan authorities have reportedly shut down access to key messaging services — @Telegram, @WhatsApp, and @signalapp — since Sunday amid protests. In some cities, including the capital, mobile internet is down and intermittent. We call on authorities to #KeepItOn.

@Jmw986 @moxie @signalapp I don't have a problem with that. My problem is not knowing when they've uninstalled or gotten a new phone... I send a secure message and they're not getting them.

@VXO There's a very real problem here: using PKI directly and safely requires a cliff of a learning curve, and if you can't scale that cliff, you can't use it safely. But also @signalapp exists, and is… fine. (Acknowledging their C-level's ignorance of how the product would be …

Anyone know how to fix the @signalapp issue where texts don't go through unless you open the app and then they all show up at a once? It's really annoying

@IanColdwater @signalapp No idea how to fix it, but I've noticed that it seems to happen whenever they push updates that are intended to improve battery life.

@Twiblr @lockheimer @signalapp It's not as simple as building an app. Google already did this with Hangouts and fellback to SMS like you pointed it out. It wasn't the solution to this room to this problem.
