@signalapp Do you have some issues with push notifications since iOS 15? I am getting the messages only, when I open the app. All notifications are activated for the app as well as the background data. App re-install does not fix the problem.

@signalapp is *still* broken on iOS 15. Using iMessage instead.

@lejyby @signalapp Well some friends and myself encounter the same issues on several android phones. When you select pictures to send it may keep a black screen or hang

@AlecMuffett @signalapp Fixed it for you. “In November 2011, Whisper Systems announced that it had been acquired by Twitter. Neither company disclosed the financial terms of the deal. The acquisition was done "primarily so that Mr. Marlinspike could help the then-startup improve its security".

@tarteone @signalapp Snarkiness or stupidness?When was I debating about transferring old msgs? The only issue I mentioned was the annoying PIN prompts from Signal. There’s other ways to keep it secure but I can get why it wouldn’t affect U since U prob don’t have a life & got nothin else better to do

@signalapp I'm an Android beta user & since yesterday the app has been highly unresponsive. Various screens (messages with a contact, settings, disappearing messages selector) don't load, and actions taken from the main contact list (like archiving) have no effect. Known issue?

@Cheezlethakidd @Snowden @signalapp Nope, use Signal to also manage your SMS messages & problem solved. You have no idea about privacy issues if you think texting & using Signal are the same. Instead, view it as under SMS, all your messages are stored by gov or telco, then can be used to analyse your personality

@Snowden @signalapp Signal user here. I love it. Its the only privacy focused app iv been able to get my FAM into. But I wish they would get there s** together. They have not been updating changes to the server side on their Repo's, so, they aren't really open source anymore. Thanks for your service

@whnt Better. I don't use Facebook nor Instagram. And while Whatsapp was down I thought I need a messenger that is as easy but independent from Facebook. Realized I already have @signalapp . It's more secure just barely used. So without Facebook, I hope more would use it.

Following WhatsApp outage, I wonder is @signalapp just says “LOST SIGNAL” when the service is down.

@signalapp your notifications on iOS 15 are still broken, also after the last update.

@firefox @MarcoPoloApp @signalapp This also seems like a good time to remind you if we wanted a Chrome like browser we would use it instead, so could you please stop watering down Firefox experience with imposed features literally no one (but someone with clear lack of common UI/UX sense) asked?

Strange. Since a few hours @signalapp notification seem broken. They only appear after opening the app.

(@knc331) reported
@Snowden @signalapp People are so attached to WhatsApp it's became super difficult to convince them to move any other app even if it is more secure and private. While I'm using Signal, I need others to be also on Signal to communicate so it boils down awareness and self thought. Bad state to be in.

@astro_reece @signalapp I left back in May 90% of the people I message daily are on Signal. I just have to get my Mother, not any fault of her. I just keep forgetting to walk her through it. She wouldn't be issue like most people were.

@techguruca @signalapp @WhatsApp Thanks Irfan but pls excuse my ignorance, how do I verify the validity of the message through address bar? Is that where the url goes? The message appeared as soon as I logged in to my Google after the two step verified login.
