For those dealing with the “chat session refreshed” issue on @signalapp, one of our friends (whose contact was the one generating 1000s of messages) appears to have resolved it via remove app, reboot phone, reinstall app. HTH. #SignalApp please RT

@bjtinnyc @EWDurbin @signalapp I think it's right to be very concerned about the BS about hacks and compromise being spread around right now. I also think engineering that is focused on resolving the issues and writing the RCA are not the people who need to be communicating with the public on this RN.

@signalapp If you want to continue to be known as the most secured communication app get rid of this bs. The app was perfect as is. You are just asking for trouble by increasing the attack surface....3rd party support? Who thought that was a secure thing

@sashaperigo @signalapp For say, Labor or Housing organizing I think Signal is ideal- but the keyboard issue is very, very easy to exploit as "lawful intercept". Right now, until we heard something from Signal I would not consider it safe for BLM etc. Best to say off mobile comms.

@EWDurbin @michaelcoyote @signalapp My own too after managing many incidents on large tech platforms, but angrily demanding the answers after less than a day isn’t going to do anything more than wear down the team working on the issues

@ScottAthey1 @signalapp Have you tried turning it off (shutting the app down) and on (losing the app back up) again?

@freebrain2020 @Cyb3rGh @signalapp This isn't about features. I don't want any of those ones. It's about attitude. Signal wants to grow & get more users, you're actively doing your best to stop that. If you want a messaging service which wants to be stagnant and not grow, then signal is not for you.

@GodSaysHodl @signalapp Sure, and Signal being pretty careful not to tell any users about that issue, Chinese or not. But Google's going to say "nope" to a National Security Letter right?

@phenidone @signalapp I’m guessing it might be up and down over the next few days, unless they’ve really sorted the pace of the rollout of new hardware.

@signalapp I am on a Samsung S8+ & still can't send messages. I can receive messages. Is sending messages still an issue? #SignalApp

@Atmos_Black @DJHiorns @signalapp I don't want to dis your good idea but I see two problems: 1) associating donors with account deanonymize them, opposite of Signal mission 2) it creates first class and second class user (donors and "freeloaders") 1) can be worked around some way. 2) not so much.

@fideChinedu @signalapp When a service is down, you want to understand the reason so it doesn’t happen again. This takes time, but works better in the long run

@signalapp I will never complain about something that is free, especially about this service that cares about security and privacy. We are with you. Donate for improvement.

@signalapp FYI, the app is easy enough to use that I figured that out when I saw the error on my phone.

@Maniacbolts @elonmusk @signalapp Few questions. 1. Isn’t Session forked from Signal? If so, wouldn’t the only advantage be that it doesn’t require a phone number for sign up? 2. What if no ones mining $LOKI. Wouldn’t that cause availability issues? Correct me if my understanding’s wrong.

@freebrain2020 @IchankSuroto @signalapp I mean I agree, stories and statuses should not be part of a service like signal. But the gatekeeping can leave a bad taste in others’ mouth and drive them away from the cause

@shadur @signalapp I completely agree. As a system administrator, I know what it's like to pull rabbits out of hats in the middle of the night with customers waiting for service to be restored.

@signalapp I hope they fix the errors in the next updates and add new things. And please don't miss the simple and orderly style of the application.

@signalapp I am still unable to send messages from iOS to Android via Signal. I know others having this problem as well. any ETA on a fix?
-
Alexandre アレックス 🦩
(@cyberflamingo) reported
@Atmos_Black @DJHiorns @signalapp This still makes a (however small) separation between users. The problem is Signal (foundation) shouldn't be able to know which Signal (app) account is the donor's. A username wouldn't help (although I've been waiting for this feature for years as well)

Manny
(@Maniacbolts) reported
@vivekv96 @elonmusk @signalapp 1. Yes, initially. But they've since refactored a lot of the code. The other big advantage is the decentralised nature of Session, no central point of failure. 2. There is no mining $loki. Service Nodes are incentivised to provide the security and routing of messages.
