@signalapp Thank you for the outage! Is there any way you can take out the networks of the 7 other electron chat apps I have to run that are sucking down my workstation's memory and ruining my productivity?

@tipyn2903 @session_app @signalapp Some people depend on messaging apps being available. Session isn't just a competitor; it is a new type of technology that is not vulnerable to a central server going down. I am going to check Session out, and hope Signal becomes decentralized too.

@MikeCoxCowes @signalapp ...and no-one question motives of 24/7 free service to millions... well acted play.

@signalapp I hate how people cry about the service not being available because of an outage. Things can go wrong. Sometimes a third party has issues that you have no control over. Everybody that ever worked with IT knows that. People will always give you **** and act like entitled kids.

@LBersee @signalapp Its a bit of a worry that Google Nest went down at the same time. Cyber attack from the usual list of bad actors?

Session
(@session_app) reported
@stunt_nuts @signalapp Some people depend on their private messaging app not having a central point of weakness that can cause it to go down.

@signalapp No spends a penny for Signal's growth (s free service with high security, no ads), but complains a lot in an outage. Just be patient and do what is required to do in your offline hurs.

@signalapp Is the outage regional, or is it network wide?

(@marcusdeanadams) reported
@LBersee @GordonW09576304 @signalapp That was my first assumption because I was using it on desktop when it went down. I checked my phone and tried sending a message there over cell service to see if it was my home internet and finally got the explanation message in the mobile app.

@BacilDonovan @signalapp I’ve never - not once - been interrupted while doing emergency engineering work by customer complaints that things are broken. Such a ridiculous management situation would be far worse than engineers determining to update the status page slightly slower than random Twits prefer.

@RealGlenMerlin @WorstAtRoutine @signalapp Sure, but is everything replicated across those providers so that nuking one of them off the map won't bring the service down?

@signalapp No-one spends a penny for open source Signal's growth (free service with high security, no ads), but complains a lot in an outage. Just be patient for a short-while and go back to what is required to do in your offline hours.

@BacilDonovan @signalapp A great deal of the determination of *what* is in order to find out *how severe* a problem is. It is no use notifying “there’s a problem” on every little blip, or on internal issues that don’t directly impact users. Plus you don’t pay for it, so you should cut them some slack.

@MikeCoxCowes @signalapp if its free does that mean it can go down for as long as they want without putting out a formal status update for hours ?

@disinthrallment @signalapp To be fair, Signal is hardly the only org that has this issue … heck, Apple is among the worst, with their status page sometimes being dead wrong for 8+ hours, then being back-dated only after the fact. I do try to call others out on that issue, too.

@GordonW09576304 @signalapp What's also dissapointing is the fact that the desktop app simply shows a 'Disconnected - Check your network connection. Click to reconnect.' message, leading the user to believe there is a problem on their end... No helpful message like the mobile app.

Why doesn't SMS via @signalapp work when their servers are down? Shouldn't it work as long as the stock SMS app does? 🤔

@disinthrallment @signalapp That, in fact, saves a lot of time and headache—early detection and *early notice* means fewer people sending in reports to people already busy trying to figure out and fix whatever went wrong.
