So glad @Facebook changed WhatsApp privacy policy. People will start to understand its not a good platform. Even if it means @signalapp is down right now because they had a massive income of users. I closed my WhatsApp account long ago and never looked back!

@forgottencmptrs @EdB_SP @signalapp No, it's not enough, because that person is being irrational. If you get "triggered" by a reminder that other people exist, you probably have a lot bigger problems. This is not a privacy or security flaw, and 100% not putting anyone in danger, as you're clearly insinuating.

@Nicola_Anne2019 @elonmusk @signalapp He’s not wrong. It’s a suggestion on how they can reduce their server load so this isn’t a problem.

That @signalapp is having issues keeping up with the increased demand due to WhatsApp exodus is a telling tale on the difficulty of #digitalDetox and promoting #privacyByDesign in our Tech tools.

As iPhone user I would love to have the possibility for backup of my @signalapp chats to any cloud service. Of course encrypted and only accessible with personal passphrase. Status quo: if you lose your iPhone, you lose all chats. This is a quite poor user experience.

@elonmusk because of your @signalapp recommendation (thx), millions of users went to install it.. And it's now been down for a whole day because they weren't expecting such a huge volume. Help them out.

@drywallsarcasm @elonmusk @signalapp You use signal to encrypt your text messages? Dude, if Tony Budding found out your real identity and threatened your job, I don't think the government would have any trouble either.

Hey @signalapp there seems to be a very high cellular data consumption when you use gifs or watch videos within the app. I’d expect some activity but not this much. Seen the Github tickets but it seems the issue still persists?

22 hours later, I still cannot use Signal whether on phone or desktop. Nobody, literally NOBODY, has ever designed a system that can gain 40 million users within a matter of days and not have issues. Take ya time, we'll be here waiting @signalapp

@signalapp Are sync-problems between iMac and iPhone also because of the technical problems? Importing of contacts doesn't work and message send on iMac doesn't show up on iPhone.

@fharper @Facebook @signalapp I use WhatsApp. I'm advocating for signal. Signal being down it's okay. WhatsApp goes down a few times a year
