    @dznz @moxie @signalapp 1/2 And supply chain is all about drawing the line eg: <jo> Does putty still have the same supply chain problems? <finch> like every other windows software? <finch> and every other software outside of windows too <oddy> the same 'supply chain problem' as every other exe ever?

  • hannabroad1 Hannah Gaz (@hannabroad1) reported

    @signalapp hi my app is not working. It says to send a debug message, but it will not work.

  • AmitejRana amitejrana.blockchain (@AmitejRana) reported

    I use @signalapp for messaging, coz it's safe, open-source, peer to peer, promotes data privacy as compared to #WhatsApp or #Telegram which goes down anytime and have our data in their centralized database. Better to switch to apps that are either open-source or based on Web 3.

  • billvinson Bill Vinson (@billvinson) reported

    @WhatsApp @signalapp Another complaint with @signalapp is the linking to a phone number. Any service that locks me into a single device/carrier ID is a non-starter for me...

  • whatsabschalten 🇩🇪 WhatsAbschalten #TeamSignal (@whatsabschalten) reported

    @rgentozala @signalapp For the usage itself, a VPN would be usable. But during verification, the number of the sender is simply blocked in general. I'll see if I can find something that can help you.

  • hannabroad1 Hannah Gaz (@hannabroad1) reported

    @whatsabschalten @signalapp I was messaging a friends and it shut down my phone completely. When I turned back on the app will no longer open.

  • rostyslav999s Ростислав Салабай (@rostyslav999s) reported

    @NilssonHolger @basierterFlo @signalapp The problem is with people that use Signal only

  • C_J_F_T ChristopherTrimboli.eth (@C_J_F_T) reported

    @signalapp Having some issues connecting to desktop mobile app QR code. Scanner is not picking it up. S20 ultra android device. Not able to get a lock on and login. 😭

  • sunilsrana1908 Sunil Singh Rana (@sunilsrana1908) reported

    @kpswathi @moneycontrolcom @signalapp I use it for communicating with my closed ones as whatsapp spamming is an issue..

  • mechanism_8 Mechanism Eight (@mechanism_8) reported

    @radio_research @signalapp That is suboptimal, not sure what analysis would really be possible, but the issue for me is that Google is perpetually shady and any interaction should be avoided. So why don’t they?

  • moogoo68 moogoo68 (@moogoo68) reported

    @signalapp I am having issues with iCloud Private relay when using wireless carrier. No issues when using my home wifi/network. Is there an issue using iCloud private relay with Signal on an iPhone with a cell phone carrier?

  • rgentozala Reine Gentozala (@rgentozala) reported

    @whatsabschalten @signalapp I see. Hopefully there’s a fix.

  • wartonhertz Warton Hertz (@wartonhertz) reported

    @signalapp Guys, i am having problems with video call on Signal for Android. Voice is delaying over the video.

  • Vargaswilliamra adoption life center (@Vargaswilliamra) reported

    @CoinDesk @signalapp @AxieInfinity Adoption Center requests funds to save 85 dogs, 141 cats so that they do not lose their home and food. Any help is welcome at our center. Binance TRC20 tanks TPH2rarn4gbNqJB9oo1vebNxH1Wd2VEqNe

  • ODELL ODELL (@ODELL) reported

    How does Intel's SGX deprecation impact @signalapp? Seems to rely on it heavily... Possibly one of the reasons @moxie just stepped down.

  • borland Orion Edwards (@borland) reported

    @oddynz @moxie @signalapp Sorry dude, not trying to rain on your parade, more just my own feeling down about the state of things 😔

  • BryanFThornton Bryan Thornton (@BryanFThornton) reported

    @Thedrken @signalapp Your logical security controls are eventually going to break down if you fail at basic physical security.

  • hortstu Horton H.A. Whoo (@hortstu) reported

    @Jmw986 @moxie @signalapp I don't have a problem with that. My problem is not knowing when they've uninstalled or gotten a new phone... I send a secure message and they're not getting them.

  • Ingulf Alex (@Ingulf) reported

    @N_Waters89 @signalapp bit of a privacy issue there

  • rgentozala Reine Gentozala (@rgentozala) reported

    @whatsabschalten @signalapp Thank you so much. Is this because Twilio’s service cannot support messages sent from a China number?

  • itisbilly Billy Pandamonium (@itisbilly) reported

    I just made a donation to @signalapp because I think I’m doing the right thing and I’m tweeting about it because I’m conceited. It really comes down to either paying for a good product, or using a free product that turns you into the product for a paying 3rd party.

  • koala_leb コアラ (@koala_leb) reported

    Is @signalapp down?

  • L_etter Lejla Sarcevic (@L_etter) reported

    Pretty annoying that I had to delete ALL of my @signalapp desktop data due to some *waves hand* data error that kept crashing it every 3 minutes. Hoping all those Signal Star symbols I'm seeing pop up help fix this kind of crap which is entirely too common.

  • RastegarRamin Ramin Rastegar (@RastegarRamin) reported

    @signalapp Sending voice notes to iPhone from Android 12 plays at double the speed in iPhone devices. Please fix.

  • hannabroad1 Hannah Gaz (@hannabroad1) reported

    @signalapp hi my app is not working. I’ve not heard back from anyone from your company. Can you please help?

  • 0xMadness 0xMadness de’ Medici u/62 (@0xMadness) reported

    @whatsabschalten @signalapp A lot of people are having the same issues. Laggy app, can't click "back" to view other message chats once in chat without closing application, notifications lag and sometimes don't update. etc etc its been happening for over a month on multiple different phones

  • bitkarrot ₿itkarrot⚡️ (@bitkarrot) reported

    @ODELL @signalapp @moxie lol i'm not sure it can work without SGX. this is the problem with depending on big tech (intel) to maintain your infra, NGMI

  • Cyphermoney Cypher (@Cyphermoney) reported

    @CryptoTweetie @signalapp Seems more likely a bad recipient than a bad service. “One possibility is that a recipient with access to the messages handed them over to investigators. The complaint references group messages run on the app, so it’s possible a participant in those chats cooperated.”
