    @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.

    @signalapp hello signal family I downloaded signal app in my phone but I can’t sent any message to anyone please help me 😭 My phone is iPhone 7 Plus 📱

  • fharper Frédéric Harper (@fharper) reported

    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!

  • SapolaBhai Akash Singh (@SapolaBhai) reported

    @signalapp common guys...fix it already

  • jr_fall Jason Fall (@jr_fall) reported

    @MikellTaylor @signalapp So it's not just me having trouble?

  • gaborgurbacs Gabor Gurbacs (@gaborgurbacs) reported

    @JanvanEck3 @Facebook @signalapp 1. On one hand, signal had 10s of millions of downloads since FB-WhatsApp integration was announced. 2. On the on the other hand, Signal needs infrastructure investment (servers) to scale in its current setup. 3. Telegram is also a good service. Also has a crypto angle.

  • TechforGoodCan Tech for Good Canada (@TechforGoodCan) reported

    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.

  • devpato Pato #OpenSource♥️ (@devpato) reported

    @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

  • Sun7_S05 S U N I L (s o c i a l) (@Sun7_S05) reported

    Dear @signalapp , As you resolve the technical issues. You might want to find a way to migrate Whatsapp blocked list to Signal :) #SignalApp #WhatsApp

  • RRaoPV Rao (@RRaoPV) reported

    @signalapp Also check if your rivals (you know who "THEY" are,) are deliberately sending DDoS attacks to bring down your server

  • taipva Tomas (@taipva) reported

    @signalapp any update on the issue?

  • filehippo57 filehippo software (@filehippo57) reported

    @mashtips @signalapp Hey i need one help please contact me inbox

  • Brooks_Lawson1 Brooks Lawson (@Brooks_Lawson1) reported

    @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.

  • yogithahr Yogitha Rajeshwar (@yogithahr) reported

    @signalapp Please add a time stamp. This is getting me in trouble with my friends when I forget to reply or have to prove a point🙈

  • whatsabschalten 🇩🇪 WhatsAbschalten #TeamSignal (@whatsabschalten) reported

    @Nico_Nicaise @signalapp Are you still having problems?

  • Kshitij1975 Kshitij Deshmukh (@Kshitij1975) reported

    @SkypLabs @sunny051488 @signalapp I wonder if they have shared their system architecture somewhere? If I think it is what it is, messages getting routed from point a->b, then adding servers, means adding queues and queue processors. It’s almost like adding more lanes that help me get from a->b.

  • TrumpsTears PickABetterChief (@TrumpsTears) reported

    @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.

  • DeltaGolfCharle Delta Charle (@DeltaGolfCharle) reported

    @signalapp is not working.

  • XaltiGal Geesje Hallerdijk (@XaltiGal) reported

    @CalmSuryavanshi @JovisJoseph_ @signalapp Shifting because privacy policy? That's naive. I've been using Signal since 2018. Well, use whatever you like, I'm not against WhatsApp or any other app. Let them compete and serve us the best service. My point was for your misinformation.

  • scaryterryz Terry Z (@scaryterryz) reported

    @signalapp Any updates on when service will be restored?

  • akhil09aug Akhil (@akhil09aug) reported

    @signalapp Not working yet.... Kindly fix it soon.

  • Mohammed_wafey Mohammed Nafea Desouky (@Mohammed_wafey) reported

    @signalapp Which time the service will be available again ?

  • taipva Tomas (@taipva) reported

    @signalapp Any update on the issue?

  • nileshbansal nileshbansal (@nileshbansal) reported

    @signalapp It's not working for me. And having no status update does mean the team does not care about basic communication to 50 million users. It's good to have a simple update "we are still trying to resolve the issue"
