My pants are torn again
(@mypantsaretorn) reported
@yakinavault @smdiehl @signalapp It solved so many problems. Problems like "ponzi schemes are illegal," "fraud is hard," "ransom payments are traceable," "GPUs are too cheap," "climate change is too slow," and more. Truly revolutionary.

@signalapp This is a terrible idea. Cryptocurrencies are appalling for the planet, are basically a giant Ponzi scheme, and are just a terrible idea all round. Please focus on secure messaging without spyware.

@ThisIsMissEm @signalapp Ah yes, there may be another reason indeed (android user here and the issues I have are not as blocking)

@signalapp And why wouldn't he? He knows better than us how bad the problem is and that most people either don't understand or just don't care. As long as he's OK then that's all that matters - the rest can just suck it up.

@signalapp @ram_terrapay Hello sir ... I have a problem and a late money transfer ... I have sent you a message on private, please help me and solve the problem

I'm so disappointed in @signalapp for integrating a shitcoin into their app. They never should have gone down the payments/wallet route to bring with, stick to the core use case of communication. This sucks.

On The Fence Dev
(@OnTheFenceDev) reported
@signalapp I previously asked how @signalapp made money to keep the lights on while offering a free service ... guess I'm getting my answer. Looks like I'll have to find another messenger app - I'm glad I hadn't started moving my friends family over already! Shame really - but inevitable?

@be_cashy @signalapp I started being discounted after Moxie went on Joe Rogan and his excuse for telling contacts you joined Signal was something like “don’t you want your friends to know you’re on Signal!” Totally disregarding the actual issue.

@signalapp Adding payments is a terrible move. It's time to look at other options.

@_benkaufman @cycryptr I hope @signalapp is smart enough to fix a mistake before its too late. Reputation is faster lost than earned.

@nmjohns1 @signalapp Session looks interesting - but another free service? How do they keep this lights on?

@CryptoMagnetdsm @mtcbtc @signalapp I can still pay with cash when the internet or power is down. Also cash does not require huge environmental destruction.

@michaelasmith @smdiehl @signalapp It appears this was already talked about way back when in 2017, so no openness issue here

@_vsaw @signalapp It would make a slight difference. To be fair, I'm on record as believing there are only two types of people involved in cryptocurrency: idiots, and criminals. Some crossover between them, of course. And in recent months, Signal has had serious problems with toxic communications

@signalapp This is a terrible idea. I've been an evangelist for Signal for years and this makes me seriously regret it all. Please don't shove ponzi scheme crypto asset tech into Signal.

(@BarlasLevent) reported
@signalapp What a terrible mistake, forever tarnishing the reputation of Signal once I loved. It's so sad that you chose to pump a shitcoin and scam people when there's #Bitcoin , which is decentralized, honest, open and free.
-
MobileCoin
(@mobilecoin) reported
@harryhalpin @signalapp @moxie Hi Harry! Some thoughts: 1) the network is decentralized (no single party controls it), and the consensus protocol is open. 2) MobileCoin is not banned in the US at all. The terms of service currently restrict US persons from interacting with our software.

@signalapp After the WhatsApp fiasco and large server load from folks switching caused issues, I started donating monthy. But this just makes me regret ever using Signal. I'll have to find an alternative now.

(@Brotoshi21M) reported
@signalapp Terrible move for an app with such a good rep. Should reconsider this feature altogether (no one is asking for it) or repent and integrate #LightningNetwork. Your shitcoin isn't even "legal" for US users 🙄. Total fail.

@signalapp This is not the way. Very disappointed in the decision to go down this path. We trusted you and you "Keybased" us...

(@bignastyhammer) reported
@peperunas @signalapp Because they're in for the profit. They need to make money to maintain their service and pay employees. To provide a respectable tool became secondary to making money. That's why they decided to use an unknown Company, Inc. token instead of the FOSS, battle-tested alternative.

@signalapp FFS. I just installed Signal after putting it off for ages and you’re going down this road too? Do payments, sure. But do it right. They have this thing in the U.K. called Sterling. Check it out, it’s really amazing.

@cycryptr @signalapp Would you call Bottlepay refusing a coinjoin UTXO a moral issue or are things more complicated?
-
Anthony Ronning
(@cycryptr) reported
@thechaz @signalapp It does. It shows their broken incentives. Just read the Terms & Service for the coin (yes, the network literally has a T&C) and all that they disallow. They’ve sold out and no morals exist that prohibit them from selling out more.

Matt Beland
(@beland_matt) reported
@_vsaw @signalapp The biggest that come to mind were their response to concerns raised around a feature that was poorly thought out and badly implemented - to wit, shut down conversation and ban the contributors. (Search "iran signal proxy") Then there was the fiasco around virtual keyboards.
