  • Nico_Nicaise la vie c’est pas un film de cul (@Nico_Nicaise) reported

    @signalapp hello, i have trouble with my message, I don’t receive or can sent message ...

  • nileshbansal nileshbansal (@nileshbansal) reported

    @signalapp @signalapp it's now been 12h with no status update. While I understand the issue of sudden surge, you should provide hourly updates. Otherwise it seems you have given up and stopped the restoration process? Will Signal come back up anytime soon (today, this week)?

  • azmadu Az Madujibeya (@azmadu) reported

    @oddynz @signalapp Which won't help Signal get their services back online! 🤷

  • Xobyr زبير (@Xobyr) reported

    @signalapp Still no update? Almost a day with this outage, you will lose lot of new customers if it continues with this pace

  • SahilMahajan_ Sahil Mahajan (@SahilMahajan_) reported

    @signalapp Outage is still on.

  • meetowl Michael (@meetowl) reported

    Sending good luck to @signalapp 🤞, there is no way they could have estimated this much of a usage spike, but I'm afraid the recent outage is going to drive people away.

  • Hcktarus1 H@cktarus 🧢🔞 (@Hcktarus1) reported

    @stevec00ps @signalapp Same problem here... 🎶YOU ARE NOT ALONE🎶

  • krysanify 🇸🇬 🇮🇩 🇹🇼 (@krysanify) reported

    @signalapp Still working? This doesn't look. Last time, I convinced my family to install Signal as secondary channel 'cause WhatsApp was down and now this... 😓

  • BtcpayServer BTCPay Server (@BtcpayServer) reported

    @signalapp @My2Gwei If you need help, ping us.

  • ebvt78 Erika ᴮᴱ 💫 에리카 💫 艾丽卡 (@ebvt78) reported

    Trying to install @signalapp and it won't send me the verification code 😭😭😭 help

  • angel_e0317 angel eruka (@angel_e0317) reported

    @signalapp can't register my number oooo, I've sent a mail and I've not gotten a reply, I want to assume it's a system downtime and the current situation with the influx of people to your app, but please help

  • meetowl Michael (@meetowl) reported

    @Girrali @signalapp Why do you think everyone has poured so much time, effort and money into the encryption algorithm of this service? Signal could be hosted in Xi Jinping's bedroom and its unlikely that he could do anything with any of the data.

  • ehrad Ehrad 🆓 (@ehrad) reported

    @slush @signalapp And I'm trying to know where Signal is hosted, I think they are using AWS, I'm supporting too, but AWS is a paradoxical choice for a privacy service :)

  • EnjoyKane 😏 (@EnjoyKane) reported

    @signalapp @signalapp is it true you were down to put a backdoor in due to pressure from hosting services?

  • jayjayHales Jonathan Hales 🚀🕊🥳 (@jayjayHales) reported

    What does @signalapp's tech stack look like? Surprised at the length of this outage.

  • thisisgael Gaël (@thisisgael) reported

    @signalapp Any update regarding the technical issues? COM is good even for bad news uknow…

  • HemantaTeam Hemanta (@HemantaTeam) reported

    @signalapp Why signal is not working in nepal? I uninstalled whatapps

  • ccie5851 Ron Fuller (@ccie5851) reported

    I hope some of the new users flocking to @signalapp will take the few minutes needed to donate. They are a 501c3 and I've submitted my donation to @VMware for a match as well. Capacity isn't free and they need the help!

  • kilijanek Kili (@kilijanek) reported

    @khimaros @elonmusk @signalapp Java is not the problem here. Problem is with how many users showed up in last few days. Now it seems number of users exceeded 40 mln (I remember when I started to use Signal it was at few tens of thousands). Facebook policy towards WhatsApp changed everything.

  • gnome_196883 evil_gnome 🍄 (@gnome_196883) reported

    @frontwheelskid Great piece indeed. 100% agree. Yet the difficulty is not finding an alternative, but to convince all ur fam/mates to move to another platform just for u. That said: if I need to discuss highly sensitive issues, posing high risk of being compromised, I'd use @signalapp sign.

  • fahy_official Mohamed FiO🇲🇦 ❁ (@fahy_official) reported

    @signalapp Looks like you can't fix it 😕

  • azmadu Az Madujibeya (@azmadu) reported

    @oddynz @signalapp Indeed, and we can chit chat all we like but it's Them that have the problem to resolve. I'd argue that this was not something that couldn't have been predicted, but I'm tired of recommending people implement some Chaos Engineering practices into their architecture. QED?? 🤷

  • Golu_Tewari Ashish Tewari (@Golu_Tewari) reported

    @signalapp hi .... anxiously waiting for the technical problems to be removed .... Any estimate of time ??? Thanks !!!

  • Malek26526400 Malek (@Malek26526400) reported

    @signalapp I have an error and I think it's not me only the problem is that when I send a message it says that it is sent but it did not deliver to the contact I hope you understand me
