    @fedora I just started using Fedora (thank you!), and I'm wondering if there is a safe, secure way to install Signal Desktop @signalapp? Do you have an issue with Signal?

  • KRinweb3

    @Daavya_vaishnav @signalapp Signal already wins on privacy and the UI is much better than many people expect. The harder problem is replacing Telegram’s bots, channels, and community infrastructure.

    @signalapp Why signal signups are not working in Pakistan? We tried on multiple devices and every time there is a network issue error.

  • chardidathing

    @evowizz @signalapp I think a majority of the issue with building a fully custom client is integration/feature parity with the official app(s). I do believe you could fork Signal and make some major improvements though, and just maintain it as a fork.

    @TomZarebczan @signalapp @RadarChat The problem is not that. the problem is onboarding others. There's no point for me being there without anyone else I know, and I have been having a quite hard time to onboard people to Signal already :)

    @Paul__Walsh @mer__edith @signalapp ? Literally in your tweet Paul. It's dangerous to suggest E2EE is broken because decrypted data can be later misused. To be clear, I agree with you... but the wording matters.

  • BrokenSerenity
    Calli Tahmo (@BrokenSerenity) reported

    @dietrichBonh @signalapp if it were actually being done right then yeah, but its not because they dont really care about that, if they did they would have listened to the many different companies and governments who told them it's unworkable and causes more security issues than it solves.

    @signalvoyager @signalapp What's the mistake? Enabling notifications? This is not isolated to Signal. If it were then we'd have a problem. Every single app's notifications gets saved in a place and manner that is outside that app's control. There's no opt out. That is why Apple fixed it.

    How can i leave the groups or delete my signal account because whenever i try to do that it say network problem even i have best internet connection @signalapp

  • GalfPlays
    GALF🇺🇦 I only simp for NAFO (@GalfPlays) reported

    @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks "we need to shoot all dogs to safeguard children from dog attacks" - that's stupid it won't help "What do you suggest then????" This is you. Wanna shoot all dogs?

  • JayMutzafi
    Jay Mutzafi (@JayMutzafi) reported

    @signalapp why is Face ID so slow only on signal? Whyyyy? I beg of you to fix it. It’s death by a thousand unlocks. It’s a tiny torture that slowly sends me into madness each day. Please of the love of all that’s secure and private, fix it.

    @signalapp @404mediaco lowkey wild that it took a leak for this fix

  • palaashatri
    Palaash Atri (@palaashatri) reported

    @bramh0sWali People can literally just use @signalapp instead. This is an idiotic ban for starters. Instead of fixing the problem they're just shooting the Messenger, literally.

  • ckv1432
    cbigelow (@ckv1432) reported

    @WhatsApp I downloaded the app, created account, & created family group. I then got a message saying I am permanently banned for violating your TOS. I never even actually used it. I only signed up. Great customer service. @signalapp can you help a mom out?

  • SantiagoPliego
    Santiago Pliego (@SantiagoPliego) reported

    TIL if your iPhone storage is almost full, Signal bricks itself. Make your backups, folks. (Also, @signalapp please fix!)

  • LizMair
    Liz Mair (@LizMair) reported

    @signalapp If you guys need public affairs help combating this, my firm would LOVE to help.

  • erikvallart
    Erik Vallart (@erikvallart) reported

    @signalapp @mer__edith I explain the why this is a problem in my definitive case against mass surveillance essay.

    @signalapp Would like to offer infrastructure security help if it’s wanted @signal

  • iMrHammad
    Hammad Maqbool (@iMrHammad) reported

    @PTAofficialpk what is the issue? Why I can't receive OTP for @signalapp app? Why google rcs is not working in Pakistan? Are these things banned from PTA?

  • wadejbeckett
    Wade J. Beckett (@wadejbeckett) reported

    @signalapp please fix the attachment limitation on desktop clients. I don't like having to use WhatsApp just to send multiple files to a contact.

  • pa1nark
    PiX (@pa1nark) reported

    @akashtiwari1007 @signalapp yup, every time i give a visit to reliance to buy something, they straight up ask for phone number and i reject it. they do try to fear monger stating i will not be able to to get refund or exchange if things go wrong (they did this to me for vegetables, not kidding). the list is long. i stopped using swiggy and zomato long back (tried once or twice back in 2021 or something and never again). i know, some of the people may find it weird, old school, but hey, to me, it is fun that way. apps like tata neu, blinkit and etc., i have never used! i tried porter only twice, horrible service (see my old tweets if interested - they just lie on face).

    @topicswithatee @signalapp Think for a bit. Age verification? Ok, no big problem, don’t like it, but acceptable. Now… how do you think you detect unsafe content ***? Tech magic? Smartphone witch? Every byte of your mobile phone must go to some server, get unencrypted and scanned. You fine with this?

  • seb_mc2
    Sebastian (@seb_mc2) reported

    @eiritana @signalapp How would that fix phishing?

  • shahabafridi
    Shahab Afridi (@shahabafridi) reported

    @signalapp What is the issue with the sms in pakistan? When trying to create account without vpn it always tell that connect to internet, when used vpn it says we can not send sms, try in several hours

  • BrunoZP
    Bruno (@BrunoZP) reported

    @signalapp Agreed — that’s just dumb. They’re creating new issues instead of fixing the one.

  • AlmightyAye
    AlmightyA (@AlmightyAye) reported

    @Mandy03567961 @signalapp Shutting it down in the face of a criminal demand like this is submission and accepting defeat. This situation needs people openly and proudly defying it, while calling it what it is, and that's a human rights violation.

  • drbezuban
    Dr Bezuban Bezgul (@drbezuban) reported

    Hello @signalapp what is update about ur privacy breach baby? What is issue of Iphone Signal Notification Data Disclosure??

  • FrOSo49
    Fr.O So (@FrOSo49) reported

    @signalapp @404mediaco Not sure the main problem about notifications is solved

  • MeanHash

    So @signalapp what the play here? Can't bow down to this rule.

  • signalvoyager
    SignalVoyager (@signalvoyager) reported

    And now @RadarChat brings that same freedom to Signal replacing what is wrong with hile keeping what is good. Is it too much to ask @vikrantnyc to fix @signalapp 's backup problem? (n/n)
