@michaelcaster Maybe such censorship will help @signalapp to realize the registration without phone number. This is the only way to help people in affected countries.

@threatresearch @signalapp Timing? Network latency? I have a similar issue with the same sort of MFA setup in an on-Prem application. If the timer is more than halfway done, I have to wait for the next code.

@michaelcaster @GreatFireChina @signalapp Cracking down on secure messager apps is a bit of a whack-a-mole, game isn‘t it? How about Threema, which doesn‘t use a phone number for identification at all?

@orangedmike @signalapp is a great messenger service if you wish to use a single application for both E2EE & SMS messages. If you aren't interested in combining SMS then you can avoid submitting your phone number altogether by using @session_app instead 😎

So if you regularly use @signalapp on iOS, you might have encountered this issue where your phone's screen will completely freeze when you answer a call. I have been facing this issue for two months now. At first I thought it was only with my phone but its actually quite common.

@signalapp VER 5.39.0.15 forwarding list keeps jumping and doesn't scroll as before. It is not as responsive as before on IOS15.5, really horrible as hv to trial n error in order to JUST select my 5 contacts. U guys indeed messed up.

I love @signalapp as recommended by @elonmusk . I shifted in the wake of Whatsapp related privacy issues. However, (according to #threema) even Signal is not GDPR compliant, remains at the mercy of the US judges, and had their last audit in 2014.

I've had increasing issues recently with @signalapp where my calls won't ring for others and they will just get a missed call notification. Same thing for calls I receive. I'll never get a notification and then ask of the sudden I have a missed call. Anyone else have this issue?

@signalapp We do. But it doesn't feel like you prioritize most basic features enough i.e, audio calls, video calls, group calls. Incoming call notifications are broken! I don't know why I am sticking with this app despite continuous tons of issues!

1/4 🚨🚨 I'm hearing early reports that #China has further escalated its crackdown on @signalapp. This is terrible for civil society who have been able to use Signal for secure communication. #Encryption

@ccoetzee1 @signalapp I totally get this. It's hard to overcome the power of the network effect. :( Fortunately WhatsApp was never very popular in Bulgaria, but unfortunately the most popular messenger service is FB Messenger... And the second most popular is Viber. :(

@Vasko_Georgiev1 @signalapp Signal is OSS, end-to-end encrypted and respects your privacy. FB mines all the Messenger and WhatsApp convos, regardless of their claims they don't. Viber isn't any better IMO. Telegram is kind of OK, but Signal is definitely the most trustworthy messenger service today.
