  @signalapp give us closed captioning for video calls, this is a massive accessibility issue!

  @signalapp it looks like you have a major issue with communist group committing felony crimes. Is this something you want for your company? I hope you are not apart of this horrible group.

  @ZainanZhou @signalapp Signal could design this product to create accounts without a phone number. It would better follow their "Privacy First" mission. But they didn't do that. And they don't publish a lengthy blog on this contradiction. This is an unforced error.

  @signalapp The problem with Signal is that it doesn't use any of the contacts... Unfortunately, this is impossible.

  OMFG - these arm chair security people calling this recent issue where iOS notifications where preview messages were held - calling it a @signalapp issue are just making me nuts. It’s an #OpSec issue / if you’re concerned - security is not one app it’s an entire process.

  @YAJames10 @_spiriituaL @signalapp Signal is a free messaging app focused on privacy. It's used for secure text, voice/video calls, and file sharing with end-to-end encryption, making it popular for personal and professional communication where security matters. If you're facing login issues, try checking your internet or app updates.

  @KieranOnBase @signalapp tldr: not the end of the world, this vuln only impacted users behind reverse proxies (which was still quite a number of users). patch is now merged to main code so all good for that specfic issue

  @marchofer @signalapp Not so fast. There's a Signal issue here.

  calle (@callebtc) reported 26 minutes ago

  PSA: 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).

  @signalapp @Longtstanding Hegseth in trouble

  @GuntherEagleman @US_Minitrue @signalapp needs to shut them out of the service. They’re engaged in illegal activity.

  @signalapp Rule of the internet: If someone asks for your verification code, they’re trying to steal your account. No legit service will ever ask for it. Stay sharp.

  @signalapp This is literally as old as dial up. I may or may not have done it way back when AOL was a pay per hour service. Send out 3000 messages all at once and have chat log turned on. Account would get nuked in 5 min, go to the log and there would be five more accounts.

  @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.

  @signalapp signal view once on iOS is useless since it allows receipt to take screenshots. Fix it plz.

  @CisoDiagonal @signalapp Don‘t think so, had that problem a year ago every time I wanted to use signal. Just ignored it and now we here

  @manasiwibi @signalapp Yes. It's still a problem. Hallo? Can you fix it signal?

•

  @signalapp is broken, I guess

  @manasiwibi @signalapp @grok why they still cant fix the issue?

  @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.

  Hi @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?

  @meatman310 @signalapp @PatrickAlphaC This is so annoying tbh. I experienced same issue a while back but I was able to recover a large part of it. Have you been able to fix that?

• 
  🇸🇰 Ivan Jaros (@IvanJaros) reported 55 minutes ago

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

• 
  TechContent (@TechContentinfo) reported 57 minutes ago

  @signalapp a number of my contacts are not getting notifications of my signal messages. One on Android and others on iphone. Been like this for at least a year. Please fix.

  Kata Saya (@Tree_0flife) reported 58 minutes ago

  @signalapp Great. Now can you fix the sign up issue??
