    @mHaGqnOACyFm0h5 @signalapp Of course I know axolotl came from noise and add double ratchet if this is what you mean. But noise in LN solve a problem that signal implementation failed: groups. Because LN use HTLC on top of noise. This very powerful and solid. This is what I wanted to say

  • shahabasen E.N.SHA (@shahabasen) reported

    @signalapp Application is not working

  • secyturtle cooper in a tree (@secyturtle) reported

    You don't have to worry about being outside of the "Five eyes" and if the company will bow down to government subpoenas. It can't. Because @signalapp doesn't actually know anything about me.

  • MaraAnn333 Célia Catalbas (@MaraAnn333) reported

    With a signal service setup by their signal server github, i could track every user. Which again, IF SIGNAL WOULDNT LINK TO PHONE NUMBERS, would be less of a problem, cause feds use that to dox. but @signalapp will keep their claims of knowing nothing until they cant.

  • Anvay13 Anvay (@Anvay13) reported

    Hey @signalapp please begin an E2E encrypted email service; hope that is on your roadmap.

  • pink__daisy LA REINA 👸🏽 (@pink__daisy) reported

    @signalapp I recently downloaded the app and it’s not working, messages are not delivering and I can’t make or receive calls but I see the missed calls when I am called. Help

  • LetoDK LetoDK (@LetoDK) reported

    @signalapp This is still a big wish for me 🙏 also, the second I plug my charging cable into my phone, Signal starts taking backup, which slows down my phone a lot. Maybe make it wait until the phone is inactive?

  • Ca_Antoine Antoine (@Ca_Antoine) reported

    @signalapp iOs accessibility issue with VoiceOver - Hello, when sending or receiving a reply, I cannot see the quoted message... Thank you :)

  • stramargio Andrea Margiovanni (@stramargio) reported

    They’re just #metadata. “They know you spoke with an HIV testing service, then your doctor, then your health insurance company in the same hour. But they don’t know what was discussed.” Leave #Whatsapp. Use @signalapp.

  • the_doctor713 David Coston (@the_doctor713) reported

    @signalapp my partner can get my signal messages but I cannot receive theirs. We both are fully updated. Have restarted our phones. Completely reset the conversation and security verification. The problem persists. What gives?

  • lrvick Lance R. Vick ( @lrvick@mastodon.social ) (@lrvick) reported

    @1ConArtist1 @signalapp They likely won't because they accept these issues in their threat model but admitting it in public is bad optics. I talked to Moxie about these issues myself at length to be sure of my statements. TL;DR: Fundamentally they just expect everyone to trust them, and Intel.

  • stivinet steiv (@stivinet) reported

    @signalapp Hey signal please help out India, plzzz

  • MairJulian Julian Mair (@MairJulian) reported

    @signalapp I’ve installed today’s version 5.10 on iPhone 12 Pro. Since then Signal keeps crashing when trying to open the app. I’ve sent some crash reports via Apple, hope this helps to solve the issue.

  • Dre61003809 Dre (@Dre61003809) reported

    @brian_armstrong @moxie @signalapp I'll be filing a complaint to the SEC to investigate your "company." Im unable to transfer almost $2000 dollars out of my closed account. Also, why the hell do you not have a customer service line? You are not Facebook you ******, you are dealing with people's finances. 🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • NYCDrMom1 NYCDrMom (@NYCDrMom1) reported

    @brian_armstrong @moxie @signalapp Case 0562.... My email was hacked and I need cb funds frozen. I only get a robo message from coinbase to change and secure email password!!! I lost access to my email!! Help!

  • eikologyy Kaia😷 (@eikologyy) reported

    @tsuistacey @signalapp Just say notifications issue 😳

  • _ParticleDecay Joey Espinosa (@_ParticleDecay) reported

    Better idea: Have the ability for your mobile app to can a QR code on the TV and automatically link the TV app to your account (@WhatsApp, @signalapp). This way you can use the app you're already logged into and you don't have a separate (stray?) login on your browser.

  • MairJulian Julian Mair (@MairJulian) reported

    Hey @signalapp, seems like I am the only one with this problem. Any idea what could be wrong or how I could solve this?

  • Muhibur93694815 Muhibur Rahman (@Muhibur93694815) reported

    @signalapp 3rd. When my phone's screen off and if that time anyone send me message then it doesn't sound, I mean notification sound. Notification sound only works while chatting with a person when he reply me. I think it's needs urgently improvement and fix this problems

  • swedishnutlathe Craig (@swedishnutlathe) reported

    @signalapp can you help explain why Signal requires to be tied to a phone number and i can't just have a random ID autogenerated/created manually? I see no real reason for this restriction.
