Eason Chai (@easonchaiii) reported@theonejvo @signalapp seems like a reoccurring issue with people getting into vibecoding
-
Nick Cairns (@simpin4pepe) reported@signalapp This is literally as old as dial up. I may or may not have done it way back when AOL was a pay per hour service. Send out 3000 messages all at once and have chat log turned on. Account would get nuked in 5 min, go to the log and there would be five more accounts.
-
npalsensei (@npalsensei) reported@AeldorThalion @Viber @signalapp Welp. The problem is that most of my contacts are either on fb (which I don't have anymore) or Viber. I can't just randomly tell everyone to go into signal or anything, that's usually the main issue, not whether *I* can switch. I can. My network doesn't switch🫠.

Kata Saya (@Tree_0flife) reported@signalapp Great. Now can you fix the sign up issue??
-
Sarina (@Rainwashmee) reported@signalapp Iran's government is silencing its people by cutting off the internet, hiding atrocities from the world. You have the power to help. Will you stand with us, or betray our trust by staying silent? #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

hackerman.jpeg (@HackermanJpeg) reportedDid @signalapp get hacked? Or just tech problems ;) #signal #hack

-
TLD Investors (@TLDInvestors) reported@theonejvo @signalapp @morganlinton happening faster than you mentioned all these security problems.
-
青い夜の記憶 (@XBMXYW) reported@signalapp When will Google and Apple's passkey login be supported? Both telegram and wechat next door have been supported, and it comes from the loyal appeal of an advanced user who supports signal software development every month.
-
mrs kzg.eth née kassandra (@kassandraETH) reportedi think @signalapp is/was down for a bit?
-
🥷pirate🦜smith🏴☠️ (@lea7hersm17h) reported@callebtc @signalapp @smspoolnet even tho i dislike the titan, port your number to Google Voice for $10 then keep the free service. only problem is it registers as VoiP so doesn't always authenticate as a true phone number. but it verifies with Signal
-
TechContent (@TechContentinfo) reported@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.
-
MotoMurphyADV (@MotoMurphyADV) reported@signalapp seems to be down right now.
-
Beyond AI (@BeyondAI01) reported@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.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@YAJames10 @_spiriituaL @signalapp Signal is a free messaging app focused on privacy. It's used for secure text, voice/video calls, and file sharing with end-to-end encryption, making it popular for personal and professional communication where security matters. If you're facing login issues, try checking your internet or app updates.

Candy Corn (@thecandycancan1) reported@signalapp That’s some terrible grammar right there.
-
Joey Terna Agor (@ternaagor) reported@signalapp Why am I unable to complete the set up of Signal on my new Android OnePlus 15 phone? No promised verification code to my number ever comes. I deleted my Signal account on my iPhone 11 Pro Max, reinstalled Signal on my new phone all to no avail. Any help?
-
papi@bigpapi55. (@VenomC11612) reported@signalapp @signalapp I tried creating account but it always failing pls I need a fix on that
-
marcmore (@marcmore011) reported@signalapp The problem with Signal is that it doesn't use any of the contacts... Unfortunately, this is impossible.
-
Foxy⚔️ (@Dancinfoxy) reported@signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran
-
Candice (@candicekteo) reportedCurrently stuck in a Captcha loop nightmare on @signalapp because I created a new group chat with new contacts, whom I sent a DM to first before adding to the group. I tell myself it's OK as it means protection and security are working on Signal.... but HELP. 💀🛡
-
Mark Hissink Muller (@markhm) reportedHi @signalapp. On iOS you ask for my recovery key as a reminder. This makes no sense to me. Either I still have it or I don't. If I don't have it anymore, your reminder will not help. What am I missing?
-
Dear Men. (@Dea_rMen) reported@signalapp Rule of the internet: If someone asks for your verification code, they’re trying to steal your account. No legit service will ever ask for it. Stay sharp.
-
Kata Saya (@Tree_0flife) reported@manasiwibi @signalapp Yes. It's still a problem. Hallo? Can you fix it signal?
-
Maximus Curious (@StatsMaxer) reported@theonejvo @signalapp credential stuffing wins when scale exceeds patch speed. hundreds exposed in 24h means the cost to harden is now baked into real ops. signalapps free tier model inverts incentives. they won't fix until shutdown forces it.
