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

  • missmatsuko Matsuko (@missmatsuko) reported

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

  • stunt_nuts UFO tofu (@stunt_nuts) reported

    @session_app @signalapp really poor taste to use their outage to promote your competing service. practice #hugops

  • BafDyce Fabian (@BafDyce) reported

    @signalapp I cannot even send SMS via Signal (signal is configured as my default sms app, which I now regret)? What kind of broken design is this?

  • Torbeasy DogeOKC (@Torbeasy) reported

    @signalapp Signal app down the same day news about CIA plot to assassinate Assange comes out.

  • hypoHetsu Hetang Modi (@hypoHetsu) reported

    @signalapp , is the Signal down today? The messages are in loading state and aren't being sent. Is there an outage?

  • jinalshah_codes Mr Techie - Tech Enthusiast (@jinalshah_codes) reported

    @cape_diamond @signalapp Also in india, Signal outage is happening on mobile

  • honkFl honK (@honkFl) reported

    @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.

  • kahara Joni "五毛" Kähärä (@kahara) reported

    @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?

  • blockpane Todd Garrison (@blockpane) reported

    @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?

  • kln_nurv D K (@kln_nurv) reported

    @MayWongCNA @signalapp Seems to be having issues worldwide due to a problem at Amazon hosting

  • mrx2610 T-Rex (@mrx2610) reported

    @signalapp Nowadays I rarely check data connection if experience issues with sending texts

  • session_app 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.

  • ernmander ernmander (@ernmander) reported

    Apparently @signalapp is down.

  • kunalkrangari Kunal K.R. (@kunalkrangari) reported

    @signalapp And what the high paid salary committee.what they are doing when the problem occurs,they dont know a signal problem or to find out. Dont give them a too much salary for those mistakes.......

  • pieceoplastic 🐭 (A)nticapitalist(A) 🐭 (@pieceoplastic) reported

    Ist @signalapp down worldwide? Or just central europe?

  • tarikkranda Tarık Kranda (@tarikkranda) reported

    @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.

  • utkar7h Utkarsh Singh (@utkar7h) reported from PETROL BUNK ORR, State of Karnataka

    Is @signalapp down in India? @goosmusic_

  • GordonW09576304 Gordon Walker (@GordonW09576304) reported

    @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?

  • jaredthirsk Jared Thirsk (@jaredthirsk) reported

    @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.

  • marcusdeanadams Marcus Adams (@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.

  • LBersee Lionel Bersee (@LBersee) reported

    @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.

  • swisstfrazer ScFrazer (@swisstfrazer) reported

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

  • iamscbs Sarath Chandran (@iamscbs) reported

    @signalapp again went down. What is happening with your network??😟

  • UTKARSHAga92 UTKARSH AGARWAL (@UTKARSHAga92) reported

    @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 ?
