    @signalapp @404mediaco Apple could just read it from Apple Push Notification service right?

    @signalapp It's always worth asking whether a loss of privacy today will actually solve the problem it's supposed to solve tomorrow.

    @durov Thats what @signalapp also says. "Leave the market". Have they left any market? No. Zilch. Nada. Zero. When the SIM binding rules in India were made mandatory (now extended till December this year), was there any blog post? Zilch. Nada. Was there any mention from your end too? Zilch. Nada. Nyet. Realistically speaking- will it make an impact beyond "moralistic statements"? Important to note: All governments will want a bit of a control. Name calling (by a person of your stature) won't help.

    @signalapp please fix the attachment limitation on desktop clients. I don't like having to use WhatsApp just to send multiple files to a contact.

    @MichaelAlleged @signalapp Unbelievable. Who do I have to **** at Signal to fix this?

    @chat If this meant to compete with @signalapp the open-source the whole thing; otherwise it’s hard to the see the point… can you help us to see the point?

    @signalapp Handing over login credentials to “support” is an intelligence test at this point.

    @akashtiwari1007 @signalapp yup, every time i give a visit to reliance to buy something, they straight up ask for phone number and i reject it. they do try to fear monger stating i will not be able to to get refund or exchange if things go wrong (they did this to me for vegetables, not kidding). the list is long. i stopped using swiggy and zomato long back (tried once or twice back in 2021 or something and never again). i know, some of the people may find it weird, old school, but hey, to me, it is fun that way. apps like tata neu, blinkit and etc., i have never used! i tried porter only twice, horrible service (see my old tweets if interested - they just lie on face).

    @TechloreInc @signalapp should fix this by only notifying about a received message and sender without preview of its content

    @signalapp Government LOVES to solve problems. That's why they're there, to solve problems. (I guess sarcasm still doesn't work on the internet.)

    @kanavtwt Problem is not with @signalapp. They just seem to be caught in the OS cross-fire.

    Hello @signalapp what is update about ur privacy breach baby? What is issue of Iphone Signal Notification Data Disclosure??

    @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?

    Charlie (@chardidathing) reported

    @evowizz @signalapp I think a majority of the issue with building a fully custom client is integration/feature parity with the official app(s). I do believe you could fork Signal and make some major improvements though, and just maintain it as a fork.

    @signalapp watched phishing kits move from login pages to fake support scripts after trust improved

    @signalapp Used fraudulently this software could scan bank accounts & other financial & data sensitive ones like passwords. This is not the way to control the problem and should be implemented through the data centres. It will not safeguard children it's another population control measure.

    My mistake, folks. Sorry. I was on an old computer with Debian 11, and I was tired. There is no problem with Signal Desktop @signalapp in @debian 12 and 13.

    @Pandora_Delaney @ArtirKel @signalapp hmm yeah that does sound like a bug perhaps file a bug report and hope that the next update would fix? (sorry idk anyone at signal)

    And now @RadarChat brings that same freedom to Signal replacing what is wrong with hile keeping what is good. Is it too much to ask @vikrantnyc to fix @signalapp 's backup problem? (n/n)

    Tee Time (@topicswithatee) reported

    @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

    @Dinosn Other apps have a similar problem. Signal leaks chats through task switcher even when locked. I reported it ages ago; no response from @signalapp
