I just made a donation to @signalapp because I think I’m doing the right thing and I’m tweeting about it because I’m conceited. It really comes down to either paying for a good product, or using a free product that turns you into the product for a paying 3rd party.

@whatsabschalten @signalapp Thank you so much. Is this because Twilio’s service cannot support messages sent from a China number?

@signalapp I am having issues with iCloud Private relay when using wireless carrier. No issues when using my home wifi/network. Is there an issue using iCloud private relay with Signal on an iPhone with a cell phone carrier?

I use @signalapp for messaging, coz it's safe, open-source, peer to peer, promotes data privacy as compared to #WhatsApp or #Telegram which goes down anytime and have our data in their centralized database. Better to switch to apps that are either open-source or based on Web 3.

Pretty annoying that I had to delete ALL of my @signalapp desktop data due to some *waves hand* data error that kept crashing it every 3 minutes. Hoping all those Signal Star symbols I'm seeing pop up help fix this kind of crap which is entirely too common.

Anyone else on iOS (14) having issues with @SignalApp messages only loading / notifications not sending unless the app is open? I've already re-registered for push notifications. 🤔

@whatsabschalten @signalapp I was messaging a friends and it shut down my phone completely. When I turned back on the app will no longer open.

@rgentozala @signalapp For the usage itself, a VPN would be usable. But during verification, the number of the sender is simply blocked in general. I'll see if I can find something that can help you.

@Thedrken @signalapp Your logical security controls are eventually going to break down if you fail at basic physical security.

(@Cyphermoney) reported
@CryptoTweetie @signalapp Seems more likely a bad recipient than a bad service. “One possibility is that a recipient with access to the messages handed them over to investigators. The complaint references group messages run on the app, so it’s possible a participant in those chats cooperated.”

How does Intel's SGX deprecation impact @signalapp? Seems to rely on it heavily... Possibly one of the reasons @moxie just stepped down.

Hey @signalapp, I would like to support you but when I chosed that option in the app my payment via Gpay has been reclined. Tried different (German) credit cards but I keep recieving an error message. Any advice?

@radio_research @signalapp That is suboptimal, not sure what analysis would really be possible, but the issue for me is that Google is perpetually shady and any interaction should be avoided. So why don’t they?

@TorksAdam @UtopiaP2P Did you read the column in question? As long as *message content* isn't shared, most of their users shouldn't have a problem with that. As long as there's no comparable user base(!) and tested, reliable (third-party) command line interface, I see no reason to replace @signalapp.

@WhatsApp @signalapp Another complaint with @signalapp is the linking to a phone number. Any service that locks me into a single device/carrier ID is a non-starter for me...
