  Kata Saya (@Tree_0flife) reported 4 minutes ago

  @mer__edith @signalapp After repeated messages and emails to Signal support, over issues of Indonesian numbers unable to register for signal and receiving nothing but 🦗... Beginning to wonder if there isn't something more substantially sinister going on. What is being hidden and why? If its bug - say and give a fix it timeline. If it's soft censorship, say so (aka the Gov leaned on you). Otherwise it's beginning to sound suspicious.

  @gg8866401 @signalapp A proper execution would fix all of this.

•

  Signal keeps nagging to enable push notifications, with no way to stop the nags. User-hostile not user-first, and now shown to be insecure. Please fix both bugs: allow nag-stopping, an easy fix; and (if you can) avoid insecure iOS-layer push notification database, @signalapp!

  @signalapp In Tehran right now, silence is deadly. Without internet, cries for help are muted. Please, use your influence to help break the silence. Iranians will remember who stood with them #DigitalBlackOutIran #IranRevolution2026

  @signalapp no one else having issues sending from the windows app? all my recent inbound messages come through, but sending just has a constant circle

  @signalapp is broken, I guess

  @naomibrockwell @signalapp Signal really is a problem fronting features. Even if your an experience computer user with some experience securing things, it’s often not obvious what to do or where to go.

  @chriskalos_xyz @signalapp They still have servers. They just don't store unencrypted messages or encryption keys on them. Also, they are Amazon's servers that are down. Everything that uses AWS is affected.

  @signalapp These code nightmares are exactly what I might have a problem with, to every company. Hackers use more than computers to steal the codes and then make them unviable before usage. @Google A lot of code numbers went to me, but were not useable during the timeframe. They also tried to get past my brick my password trick. I'm thinking that the three enemies I have are a tad bit more than three, and there is one other one who throws valueable hardware into a single vat, just to cause pollution and degrade reality [hardware]. Their main goal was to make every single number code unuseable. Including auth timed numbers. That is all.

  @signalapp give us closed captioning for video calls, this is a massive accessibility issue!

  .@signalapp isn't the problem; it's always the #people

  @Elminster04 @signalapp Yes, but you shouldn't give any extra credit for perfect grammar either. ChatGPT et al can fix grammar of any phishing message if scammers just bothered to do that. Currently bad grammar works as a filter to continue phishing attack with the most gullible victims only.

  @signalapp a number of my contacts are not getting notifications of my signal messages. One on Android and others on iphone. Been like this for at least a year. Please fix.

  @signalapp Signal backup change is terrible UX. Thousands of small files instead of one backup = extremely slow transfers. 10GB taking 24+ hours to copy. Faster backup creation but unusable for migration. Please fix this or restore single-file backups.

  Did @signalapp get hacked? Or just tech problems ;) #signal #hack

• 
  Tim (@timderoode) reported 30 minutes ago

  @durov @durov the early OTF grants (2013-2016) for @signalapp are publicly documented. This might create a perception issue for its independence but doesn’t prove active/ongoing US gov backing or influence. Or you have other information?

  @signalapp seems to be down right now.

  @TechloreInc @signalapp should fix this by only notifying about a received message and sender without preview of its content

  anyone having issues with @signalapp ?

  Apple kind of fixed the @signalapp notification cache issue. Admitted a notification log issue, yet the iOS apps still require deleting to remove cache.

  @kanavtwt Problem is not with @signalapp. They just seem to be caught in the OS cross-fire.

  @signalapp is down

  OMFG - these arm chair security people calling this recent issue where iOS notifications where preview messages were held - calling it a @signalapp issue are just making me nuts. It’s an #OpSec issue / if you’re concerned - security is not one app it’s an entire process.

  @signalapp If the infrastructure and encryption of Signal remain uncompromised, then this is a social engineering problem, not a platform breach. User awareness is the real defense here.

  @signalapp I would argue that that's more of a people-being-naive issue than anything Signal as a company could control

  @signalapp Hello, why can't Android users not send a vídeo without having to have enable Google Photos App to be able to compress any video. Why can't it be independent of Google photos for compression like WhatsApp does. Please address this issue. Thank you.

  If Epstein was using @signalapp and not email, none of this would be an issue.

  @signalapp @404mediaco Apple could just read it from Apple Push Notification service right?
