-
marcmore (@marcmore011) reported@signalapp The problem with Signal is that it doesn't use any of the contacts... Unfortunately, this is impossible.
-
Not here, nor there! (@0to80Eventually) reported@signalapp Terrible time to associate your great app with Bill Gate's Microsoft.
-
Jacob | Five Eye Tea (@FiveEyeTea) reported@FiliusGrok @signalapp @WhiteHouse It's not the tech, it's user error, as it has been in every other situation where a story like this drops.
-
Marcin Nolte 🇵🇱🇩🇪🇺🇸 (@NolteIT) reported@signalapp Military-grade encryption. Zero infrastructure compromises. And then: “Hi, this is Signal Support Bot, please confirm your verification code.” The math was never the problem.
-
NullCoiner (@NullCoinerETH) reported.@signalapp down?
-
josé alberto (@JAVM94) reportedHey @signalapp The Problem With Reply voice message and VoiceOver is Back. If You reply To a Message With Voice Message and VoiceOver is enabled you Don’t cud Play The Message
-
Alex Kyprianou (@alexkeydesign) reportedOnce again, aws is down, @signalapp too. It cannot be trusted.
-
Divesh Kumar (@diveshkumar786) reportedWhatsapp disappearing messages has been around since so long and still they can’t fix this issue since starting. Never encountered such irritating issues with @signalapp even though they have less resources because of being a non profit organisation. @WhatsApp @Meta Are you just lazy or such issues aren’t your priority? I seriously don’t want to doubt your abilities.
-
Waqas Ahmed (@WaqqasAhmmad) reported@signalapp your server is down in pakistan, trying since yesterday to sign up but unable to do it
-
anthonychopra (@anthonychopra) reported@signalapp @404mediaco Did they even show proof or can someone see if Apple did fix it or did they lie about the fix too
-
Adrielle silva (@AdriellePro) reported@signalapp Know that where I'm headed is ALL YOUR FAULT! It all started with your name! So you might see me down today! And you didn't lift a finger to help me. But I'm not alone! You could be my worst enemy.
-
Candy Corn (@thecandycancan1) reported@signalapp That’s some terrible grammar right there.
-
Avitus (@Avitus2187) reported@nyakojiru @mer__edith @signalapp 6. **Mandatory IP protection**: Built-in Tor (or equivalent) for every connection, non-disableable. This would severely degrade the service. Just use a VPN.
-
Notesnook (@notesnook) reported@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.
-
Adiguna Mahesa (@mahesa_adi12480) reported@manasiwibi @signalapp @grok why they still cant fix the issue?
-
Jacob | Five Eye Tea (@FiveEyeTea) reported@alcipone @signalapp @NicoleGrajewski I'm curious what makes you "say hmm" about it? This story here is virtually identical to every other case of an alleged "Signal hack": it always boils down to user error or an unsafe modification of the code (as was the case with the previous government-related "Signal hack").
-
LianZaKim @Kim (@liankimpi) reported@signalapp Please a proxy to be able to login
-
ARQ (@ARQ1481987) reported@chat If this meant to compete with @signalapp the open-source the whole thing; otherwise it’s hard to the see the point… can you help us to see the point?
-
Sa'id al Athari (@SaidAlAthari) reported@_AbuMuhammad_ @signalapp Terrible advice
-
اقا ممدِ گل (@mmadhasgone) reported@signalapp In Tehran right now, silence is deadly. Without internet, cries for help are muted. Please, use your influence to help break the silence. Iranians will remember who stood with them #DigitalBlackOutIran #IranRevolution2026
-
Kata Saya (@Tree_0flife) reported@manasiwibi @signalapp Yes. It's still a problem. Hallo? Can you fix it signal?
-
BrendanEich (@BrendanEich) reported@marchofer @signalapp Not so fast. There's a Signal issue here.
-
BrendanEich (@BrendanEich) reported@NivalCat @signalapp Signal has always (since TextSecure) used phone number as primary user identifier — that’s not the issue.
-
Roy (@Roy_1465) reported@signalapp please fix it!
-
hackerman.jpeg (@HackermanJpeg) reportedDid @signalapp get hacked? Or just tech problems ;) #signal #hack
-
David Mann (@DavidMann666) reported@signalapp My suspicions would have immediately been alerted by two distinct grammar errors in there, of a type that generally only occur when the originator speaks a language with a different syntax. Easy for me to spot, not so easy for someone with less than top notch English language skills. I expect that AI will defeat me at some point. It's a minefield out there folks...
-
Waqas Ahmed (@WaqqasAhmmad) reported@signalapp server down, unable to sign up and not even working on laptop , bad experience at start
-
Bryan (@talktobryan) reported@signalapp is down 😭😪
-
TechContent (@TechContentinfo) reported@signalapp a number of my contacts are not getting notifications of my signal messages. One on Android and others on iphone. Been like this for at least a year. Please fix.
-
MarcG (@ThisisMarcG) reported@ritrixi @signalapp Its great for the login, but There was a decent argument for phone numbers, in order to gate the signups while still keeping it free. which made sense a while back. Passkeys still need a fallback & Users are sharing that fallback. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
