  • netpoette Annette Gartland (@netpoette) reported

    @signalapp @manj_ari I was using Signal but the restore function's failed so I'm unable to retrieve my account. I've lost all my chat! I transferred the back up to my new phone but the .bin file extension is causing problems. I can't access the backup & Signal is no longer available on my old phone!

    Why is the crop on @signalapp so annoying? I drag to the shape I want it to be, and it keeps springing back. Takes about 5 attempts at different crops before it actually sticks. WTAF? Terrible UX. Fix it, please, Signal peeps!

  • wiredfire @WiredFire@mastodon.social (@wiredfire) reported

    @MichalChacia @signalapp Usernames will be a nice but don’t think will inherently increase spam. I get zero spam on telegram, I have had a spam message on signal. It’s more about how you use it. Public Telegram groups? Sure, spam central. Same on most platforms - comes down to the mods doing their thing.

  • gt2andy GT2Andy (@gt2andy) reported

    @signalapp For weeks now your app has been nudging me to enter my pin to help me not to forget. I don't want to, it's like a needy child asking for attention. It seems to want this every week. Is there a way to invoke "adult mode" please?

  • RashaB92 Rasha 👾 (@RashaB92) reported

    @alpineiscalm @signalapp No family and friends use whatsapp and i like it. I honestly dont care if they store data or not, it's not an issue for me, maybe for you but not for me. Also twitter is a free platform

  • alpineiscalm Alpine (@alpineiscalm) reported

    @RashaB92 As the saying goes, when service is free, you are the product. There are other parallel socially responsible service like @signalapp which doesn't store data on cloud, but on device.

  • ktosopl Konrad ‘ktoso’ Malawski 🐟🏴‍☠️🇺🇦 (@ktosopl) reported

    @penryu Yep… Throw money at @signalapp if you want to help the state of secure communication :nods:

  • meoow_lisa Meow Lisa (@meoow_lisa) reported

    @markus_ottela @rimugu @signalapp Not really Signal is not working in this direction. On related note, Signal is working to introduce phone number privacy so theoretically , you signup using phonenumber but people can't discover you using phone number

  • PCytabom promace cytabom (@PCytabom) reported

    @signalapp I am looking for a way to estabish a bridge from Signal to Element/Matrix. Is there any help you can give me?

  • y1hy10 🐧 (@y1hy10) reported

    @imTheRealRodri @signalapp that will require them forcing u to make an account, with a username and password, which has it's issues regarding privacy

  • real_DadWood Dad Wood | ☮️ (@real_DadWood) reported

    Hey @signalapp: Typing a message and hitting the + in order to add a gif should end up in both, gif and text combined in one message. Instead, the text is gone and the gif sent without it. What’s the reason behind that? Fix this please. It’s pretty annoying!

  • ravnmane 𝕽𝖆𝖛𝖊𝖓 | 𝕳𝖔𝖚𝖘𝖊𝕺𝖋𝕭𝖑𝖆𝖈𝖐 (@ravnmane) reported

    @signalapp is there an update that I don't know about. My signal is so broken.

  • mobilecoin MobileCoin (@mobilecoin) reported

    @shashankr025 @signalapp There was a brief server config issue, however it has since been resolved! At no point was there any issue or risk to the actual MobileCoin network! Thanks for pointing it out!
