-
Steve Barnes (@realstevebarnes) reported@camhigby @signalapp needs to take this channel down and block the comms in the interest of public safety.
-
𝔖𝔱𝔢𝔫 𝔙 (@Toobydoo) reported@naomibrockwell @signalapp Signal really is a problem fronting features. Even if your an experience computer user with some experience securing things, it’s often not obvious what to do or where to go.
-
Boston Zcash 🛡️ (@BostonZcash) reported@mert @signalapp If you can't solve the problem of federation with as much metadata protection as Signal (this is the challenge), and have a solid plan to rapidly reach feature parity with as much vetting and audits as Signal, it's not worth it.
-
Comfy Caveman (@CavemanComfy14) reported@YourRightPrice @0hour1 @signalapp Signal is not at fault here. They provide a service many of your allies have used in the past. You’re like the people who blame gun manufacturers for murders. Stop.
-
marcmore (@marcmore011) reported@signalapp The problem with Signal is that it doesn't use any of the contacts... Unfortunately, this is impossible.
-
🇷🇴 🇭🇺 suveranist.today 🇷🇺 🇨🇳 🇮🇷 (@TodaySuveranist) reported@signalapp Down ?
-
Aftab Goreja (@Pas_de_quoi_) reported@FareedZakaria @mer__edith @signalapp AI game is just beginning. It will reach Nash’s equilibrium when its exploitation will hurt not just the masses but also the corporations. It could happen because people have no money to buy stuff, or there are drastic errors in algorithms (AI is approximation). But it will.
-
Sami Lehtinen (@Sami_Lehtinen) reported@signalapp Every time I open a specific chat the whole app hangs and crashes. Any word on a fix? #SignalBug #AppCrash
-
Jacob | Five Eye Tea (@FiveEyeTea) reported@FiliusGrok @signalapp @WhiteHouse It's not the tech, it's user error, as it has been in every other situation where a story like this drops.
-
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.
-
LindaRN (@LindaG_RN) reported@0hour1 @DaleSulliv94781 Good! @signalapp needs to do the same or they should be shut down completely.
-
marc hofer (@marchofer) reported@BrendanEich @signalapp It’s an iOS issue, not Signal’s problem. Dump your Apple phone, us GrapheneOS …done.
-
Alex Kyprianou (@alexkeydesign) reportedOnce again, aws is down, @signalapp too. It cannot be trusted.
-
Fadi Elsalameen فادي السلامين ⚡️ (@Elsalameen) reported@signalapp signal view once on iOS is useless since it allows receipt to take screenshots. Fix it plz.
-
Scare Crow (@Crowbar1910171) reported@signalapp is not working for them all
-
Bomboriver (@bomboriver) reported@smspoolnet @callebtc @signalapp instead of apologising fix the system with better security
-
Chuck (@Bogorad) reported@SabrinaHalper @signalapp @moxie Terrible sound.
-
calle (@callebtc) reportedPSA: purchased a phone number for @signalapp registration at @smspoolnet but the number got re-sold to a scammer else after 3 months. that person took over the signal account. super dangerous. terrible service guarantee by smspool and dangerous auth practice by signal . basically sim swapping without the social engineering. not your phone network, not your number (you can't own a mobile number).
-
Divesh Kumar (@diveshkumar786) reportedWhatsapp disappearing messages has been around since so long and still they can’t fix this issue since starting. Never encountered such irritating issues with @signalapp even though they have less resources because of being a non profit organisation. @WhatsApp @Meta Are you just lazy or such issues aren’t your priority? I seriously don’t want to doubt your abilities.
-
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?
-
Pablo (@Pablo5484030375) reported@NHpilled @signalapp Yes not working .
-
Patrick Di (@PatrickBDi) reported@signalapp The server is currently down?
-
🥷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
-
Marcin Nolte 🇵🇱🇩🇪🇺🇸 (@NolteIT) reported@signalapp Military-grade encryption. Zero infrastructure compromises. And then: “Hi, this is Signal Support Bot, please confirm your verification code.” The math was never the problem.
-
Nicholas (@undercovergreek) reported@signalapp Customer service is lacking, I paid for a service and have not been able to get it resolved with @signalapp they have not responded to multiple attempts to contacted them. Updated logs, and have newest software but there system does not let me talk to a real person
-
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.
-
Not here, nor there! (@0to80Eventually) reported@signalapp Terrible time to associate your great app with Bill Gate's Microsoft.
-
Adiguna Mahesa (@mahesa_adi12480) reported@manasiwibi @signalapp @grok why they still cant fix the issue?
-
Morgan (@morganlinton) reported@TLDInvestors @signalapp Yup, sad to see but hopefully I can help some people avoid this fate
-
Darko Luketic (@dalu_hey) reported@signalapp Phone Video calls are broken on Android since the last update
