@signalapp Please, I need a way to organize my huge contacts list and its such a chore to delete contacts. Since I can only have one instance of the Signal app on ios. I use Signal for clients but also for Family and friends, and 420. Help, Keep em separated.

@Nch25092 @signalapp I believe session or matrix may be more appropriate. Session uses tor that might help or make things worse.. hard to say.

@ibeardslee @layman_salafee @signalapp Oh I thought 'by forcing use of another app for messaging' was accusing Signal of demanding to use Signal itself to send messages (as opposed to fixing societal issues of surveillance capitalistic companies). You were talking about SMSs.

@signalapp is heading the wrong path by divesting (endearing features like integrated SMS) into focusing gimmicky feature like Stories which average users like us don't give two shits about. Stop fixing what's not broken before we start uninstalling bloatcrap like @WhatsApp

@donaldtheuugeek @signalapp It's getting usernames and stories... and dropping sms... sounds like they wanna be an encrypted social media service

@fraabye @signalapp Yes, it's terrible. It's a turn off for me. Signal is NOT a social app.

@signalapp Menu Doesn’t go away. Useless feature. There are other way more important issues with signal than wasting time and resources on features like stories 😞

@raycoon420 @signalapp I appreciate that there's a bit of confusion about what's secure vs. what's plaintext, but that's a problem that can easily be solved through UI changes. There was no need to throw out the baby with the bathwater.

@bblboy54 @signalapp and that sounds like a very terrible idea, sms messages are very expensive

(@vivekster) reported
.@signalapp if someone has my username on a single service it's straightforward for me to block/remove them if I need to. If someone has my phone number they have more ways to contact me that I can't control. This was messy enough for groups and it's only getting messier.

@signalapp Perhaps those who complain about removal of SMS service from #SignalApp do not understand the irony: SMS stands for "Short Messaging Service" NOT "Secure Messaging Service". In fact it is the most unsecure method of text communication.

@signalapp I don't think I will; instead of bs 'features' like that maybe fix you electron piece of **** apps on desktops and share native apps.

@signalapp There's a problem. After the update and opening any media it starts to flicker, especially on Android phones.

@signalapp Just tried the feature, and there are some problems from a privacy perspective. (I was shocked to see who counts as a “Signal connection,” and I worry about people who don’t think to click to check that.) Feel free to DM me.

@AlecMuffett @signalapp The trouble with any electronic data transfers is always not knowing how secure the other side(s) are Protonmail is at least encrypted at rest (unlike Signal), but if someone downloads an attachment to their desktop & backs computer up to Big Tech cloud, you're still screwed
