I love @signalapp as recommended by @elonmusk . I shifted in the wake of Whatsapp related privacy issues. However, (according to #threema) even Signal is not GDPR compliant, remains at the mercy of the US judges, and had their last audit in 2014.

I've had increasing issues recently with @signalapp where my calls won't ring for others and they will just get a missed call notification. Same thing for calls I receive. I'll never get a notification and then ask of the sudden I have a missed call. Anyone else have this issue?

@orangedmike @signalapp is a great messenger service if you wish to use a single application for both E2E & SMS messages. If you aren't interested in combining SMS then you can avoid submitting your phone number altogether by using @session_app instead 😎

@ccoetzee1 @signalapp I totally get this. It's hard to overcome the power of the network effect. :( Fortunately WhatsApp was never very popular in Bulgaria, but unfortunately the most popular messenger service is FB Messenger... And the second most popular is Viber. :(

@d4rkm4tter @signalapp That’s interesting. The local datetime makes sense, as relying on a server for it would create potential tracking or identifying data/telemetry. Should be some way they can fix the problem with disappearing messages without abandoning local datetime though

@Vasko_Georgiev1 @signalapp Signal is OSS, end-to-end encrypted and respects your privacy. FB mines all the Messenger and WhatsApp convos, regardless of their claims they don't. Viber isn't any better IMO. Telegram is kind of OK, but Signal is definitely the most trustworthy messenger service today.

So if you regularly use @signalapp on iOS, you might have encountered this issue where your phone's screen will completely freeze when you answer a call. I have been facing this issue for two months now. At first I thought it was only with my phone but its actually quite common.

@michaelcaster Maybe such censorship will help @signalapp to realize the registration without phone number. This is the only way to help people in affected countries.

Hello @signalapp ! I can't link my signal app on OSX with my phone because the camera freezes when I try to cach the QR code. The bug is on Redmi Note 11, can you help me?

(@weitzelb) reported
.@signalapp has some serious UX issues that would take nothing to fix. For example, a sibling group chat: Amy Webler - hi Andrew Webler - sup Arnold Webler - where's mom? Amanda Webler - who's mom? (AW ...) <--- "is typing" WHICH AW IS TYPING!?!

Why the hell I receive tons of notifications about friend using @signalapp (a messaging service I love) but when you try to contact them there, it seems like they are ghosts? People install, after some friend recommends, then forget. That’s my guess.

@signalapp it’s ******* annoying how it messages everyone you know when you join telegram. I know people who refuse to download the app because of this. Fix it!

The chat inside @gmail is really bad on Android, a relative has been sending me messages all day (using it instead of @signalapp because her phone is broken) and nearly all times, no notification is shown. Mail notifications arrive without problems, so it isn't an app sleep issue

1/4 🚨🚨 I'm hearing early reports that #China has further escalated its crackdown on @signalapp. This is terrible for civil society who have been able to use Signal for secure communication. #Encryption

@isamlambert I know what it is and refuse to use it. Colleagues in my company are using it and I am sick of yet another web service running as application trying to be everything in one thing. @session_app or @signalapp and we are good to go. Oh, and let's not forget good old IRC.

Every single time @signalapp asks me for my backup pin (which is on-average every 3 days); I have to look it up in my PW manager. This is not working to make people remember their PIN. In fact it's probably encouraging users to pick weak PINS, or disable this PW feature. 0/5⭐
