-
MeanHash ₿ ✪ (@MeanHash) reportedSo @signalapp what the play here? Can't bow down to this rule.
-
ChilizHODL⚡️ (@ChillizHODL) reported@signalapp They wreck and mismanage the economy. Making ordinary life including raising children, having a family difficult and broken. Two parents are overworked and they know it. Children are growing up without efficient parental guidance. Government comes in with a big stick. Cowards.
-
S.A.P (@SAP127001) reportedApple kind of fixed the @signalapp notification cache issue. Admitted a notification log issue, yet the iOS apps still require deleting to remove cache.
-
Nicky Santoro (@burner8787) reported@topicswithatee @signalapp Take the phone away from the kids if they’re not trustworthy. Problem solved.
-
Mister Ree (@MisterRee321) reported@ShaneAKAProp @beverleyturner @signalapp Not my problem.
-
Dom (@dom_de_la_rose) reported@theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks its not hard to lock down a phone to the most basic of functions are you that retarded?
-
Tech_Temp (@Tech_Temp_) reported@agaefendi_ @signalapp It's amazing that you've reported the CSAM. But what I am telling you is that if they create a privacy service where you can save your pictures or other days that you want to stay private nothing is stopping them from doing the same thing they are doing now. We need to act now
-
शाश्वोत ढुंगाना🇳🇵☭ (@ShaswotNepal) reported@signalapp @404mediaco SMS Provider is down for Nepal. i am unable to log in to new device. fix it ASAP.
-
Gurio (@StasisRush) reportedHuh, the @signalapp ended up to be the worst possible connector for an agent bot identity. I didn’t not expect to say it, but here it goes: WhatsApp is a easier to setup if you want a messaging face for your service/platform
-
Luksit (@VijjaHolder) reported@TheDesertLynx @signalapp The problem is that in order to use Signal you need to make use of their servers.
-
nisten🇨🇦e/acc (@nisten) reported@privacylawyer @signalapp apple should just shut down their iclouds
-
Paul Moore - Security Consultant (@Paul_Reviews) reported@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.
-
AinWeb3 (@AinWeb3) reported@signalapp It's always worth asking whether a loss of privacy today will actually solve the problem it's supposed to solve tomorrow.
-
Stephen Ballion (@mountainofspoon) reported@femalepencil Because it’s owned by @Meta which is a terrible company - try @signalapp
-
XLERB (@XLERBonX) reported@signalapp Government LOVES to solve problems. That's why they're there, to solve problems. (I guess sarcasm still doesn't work on the internet.)
-
wanna be racer (@bitchin1283e) reported@chrisfrazier0 @Bwazenbull @signalapp Holy ****. I saw some other guy say VPN doesn't help, same for you?
-
Old School (@CHiPs1988) reported@Apple Siri is horrible! Never gets it right. Try to dictate on CarPlay and it will cut you off. I message is horrible as well. The @signalapp is way better! @grok is great and always gets it right! Will even correct me sometimes and it was right! Hire English speaking people to teach IPhone to dictate properly. I’ve worked in the labs and I know who is working on the iPhones. This is the problem. “No Joke!”
-
Yegor Tkachenko (@yegortk) reported@signalapp @prestonjbyrne Life is a multi-obejctive optimization problem - child safety is one important objective, privacy is another important objective (Iranians would love more privacy from their state). Maxing out a single objective when the price of that is sacrificing all else is a bad policy.
-
anticensor (@blankanticensor) reported@StefanBrindusa @daily_romania @signalapp I dunno if you just didn’t listen well, or if you don’t understand the issue. Those vulnerabilities were open-source algorithms!
-
Sascha Dämgen 🧐 (@sascha_daemgen) reported@signalapp Phone number + recovery PIN are phishable. FIDO2 hardware tokens are not. That's an architecture choice, not a "universal messaging problem." SimpleGoX ships FIDO2 in 048. No phone number to hijack in the first place. 🔐

▄︻デA̷ ̷D̷e̷a̷f̷ ̷G̷u̷y̷══━一 (@Adeafguy) reported@signalapp You guys were down when amazon went down. Garbage 🗑
-
cinesius.eth (@cinesiusss) reported@KhanAbbas201 @signalapp good for chats, sadly terrible ux for groups. not even sure what is the reason for expiring links.
-
#opXpress (@_opXpress) reported@FreedomofPress @signalapp It's very odd that you don't help promote apps that are even more secure than Signal like @SimpleXChat why is that?
-
Web3Privacy Now (@web3privacy) reportedGiving Friday: 1. Choose one "free" tool you use from @signalapp to VLC 2. Donate even $5 (every donation matters). 3. Help those teams stay free.
-
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?
-
Greensleeves (@grnsleeves) reported@Pandora_Delaney @ArtirKel @signalapp hmm yeah that does sound like a bug perhaps file a bug report and hope that the next update would fix? (sorry idk anyone at signal)
-
Idea Catalogue (@idea_catalogue) reported@theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks for instance someone could mail you pics you don't want, also anonymously. but i don't call for the post office to censor everyone's mail. you can choose not to open the mail from unsolicited senders. or pay a service to filter your mail and not forward ones screened for ******
-
FAFO (@areyoukay) reported@topicswithatee @signalapp Stop giving kids smart phones Problem solved It’s on the lazy *** parents
-
Sebastian Buzdugan (@sebuzdugan) reported@signalapp usernames help, but spam control gets harder when phone numbers stop anchoring identity
-
Tim (@timderoode) reported@durov @durov the early OTF grants (2013-2016) for @signalapp are publicly documented. This might create a perception issue for its independence but doesn’t prove active/ongoing US gov backing or influence. Or you have other information?
