    @signalapp @signalapp please keep pushing against government dystopia in the UK and EU. Please keep informing the public of harmful policy decisions from government like this. Please pull your services from any dystopian jurisdiction to help shed light on the issue Please do not capitulate

    @signalapp project folders help, but unread semantics get messy once muted chats are included

    @yrschrade @orithellama @signalapp You need more than that. It’s not the encryption that’s the problem with Signal, it’s the pre exposed mobile number and by extension home address

    Firebase Phone Number Verification going GA matters far beyond developer convenience. In countries like #Iran, where SMS verification codes are often blocked or unreliable, SMS-less phone verification could help users register for secure apps — if adopted by apps like @signalapp.

    @Daavya_vaishnav @signalapp Signal already wins on privacy and the UI is much better than many people expect. The harder problem is replacing Telegram’s bots, channels, and community infrastructure.

    @signalapp Why signal signups are not working in Pakistan? We tried on multiple devices and every time there is a network issue error.

    @signalapp @prestonjbyrne Life is a multi-obejctive optimization problem - child safety is one important objective, privacy is another important objective (Iranians would love more privacy from their state). Maxing out a single objective when the price of that is sacrificing all else is a bad policy.

    @PTAofficialpk what is the issue? Why I can't receive OTP for @signalapp app? Why google rcs is not working in Pakistan? Are these things banned from PTA?

    Damn, I didn’t know this!!! @signalapp Might fully move from Telegram to Signal at this point. My main issue with TG has always been the scammy bots/games and the fact msg aren’t encrypted by default unless you manually use Secret Chat. Other than that, it’s honestly a great and complete app

    Anyone had problems with @signalapp just freezing soon as app is open, sometimes if im quick it will let me open a chat but it wont let me send messages etc, cleared cache, reinstalled etc still same!

    @spamfighter666 @signalapp (I've posted a corrected link -- not sure what went wrong.) I was referring to Parliamentarians only, to get a sense of what it would be like to lose this essential service.

  • craig100
    Craig Stevens (@craig100) reported

    @LabDRN @signalapp A better way to do this is to only switch the service on for childs' phones. The parents do that when they set up the phone. No dig ID needed.

    @sombradosul @signalapp @depressivehacks While true, it’s best to have a proposal to the problem Else, you are just another complainer on the Internet

    @CityofHats @signalapp I mean, only the latest version of Signal supports linking phones and Android tablets as clients, so the version is kind of obvious. And yes, I agree, this is not a security issue. It is just a sync bug.

    @fedora I just started using Fedora (thank you!), and I'm wondering if there is a safe, secure way to install Signal Desktop @signalapp? Do you have an issue with Signal?

    @topicswithatee @signalapp Take the phone away from the kids if they’re not trustworthy. Problem solved.

    @The_Propapanda @signalapp I'm sure that if you can provide an exhaustive list of all names that might be used in phishing campaigns, signal can block them... That is a weak spot, but it's hard to fix.

    @signalapp Im reading a lot of abuse and a lot of "tech Lord" adoration but very few actual proposals to use the tech itself to stop kids from taking or sharing **** pictures. I suppose some of the repliers above have no issue with young kids having social media apps which the medical 1/2

    @signalapp usernames help, but spam control gets harder when phone numbers stop anchoring identity

    Upgraded to the Pixel 11 Pro today and I'm happy to report that it's incredibly boring and everything just works. Fastest switchover so far, only casualty was that I couldnt instantly transfer @signalapp without paying for their backup service. So I'm out $2, but to a good cause.

    @notesnook @signalapp Signal devs must lead the way leading other devs to takre control back. They should guide other devs. Yet they follow common protocols and win stupid prices like this. Then cry for Apple support to help them fix things. I expect better from Signal. (n/n)

    @topicswithatee @signalapp Think for a bit. Age verification? Ok, no big problem, don’t like it, but acceptable. Now… how do you think you detect unsafe content ***? Tech magic? Smartphone witch? Every byte of your mobile phone must go to some server, get unencrypted and scanned. You fine with this?

    Note to @signalapp @ProtonMail Can gov just spent years trying everything to attack non compliance of canna bis Seeking to shut down web sites, attack landlords with charges, shut down payment services, charge employees, take vehicles use concrete to block doors, threat letters
