    @signalapp HELP

  • AqeelHa68247240 Aqeel Haider (@AqeelHa68247240) reported

    @Snowden @signalapp Please solve this problem

  • pwdebruyne Pieter De Bruyne (@pwdebruyne) reported

    @Facebook No problem here. @Twitter and @signalapp still working fine

  • mjortiz1980 Michael Ortiz (@mjortiz1980) reported

    Monday's #Privacy PSA: @signalapp is open source, but requires your phone number (a personal identifier) to use its messaging service. Its privacy is therefore inherently compromised. @ThreemaApp is open source and supports complete anonymity for real privacy. Choose wisely.

  • PeterVanEijk8 Peter Van Eijk (@PeterVanEijk8) reported

    @WhatsApp @signalapp please help all these people...

  • tomas_hozman Tomáš Hozman (@tomas_hozman) reported

    @NoddyD @Snowden @signalapp While the point about all services being susceptible to network issues is completely fair, an open source chat app is certainly a good idea. I'm not sure why it wouldn't be.

  • MarcoRossano2 Marco Rossano (@MarcoRossano2) reported

    @Snowden @signalapp But what are these crashes (which are rare anyway)? In the end, is it just a software issue or can it be due to hardware problems?

  • baalbaki_lama lama-B (@baalbaki_lama) reported

    @mohamad_nimer @telegram @signalapp Telegram is not working too

  • P3ttr0 Frank Pande (@P3ttr0) reported

    @signalapp Installed signal app but can't register due to verification issue

  • imaginekpk Kalpana (@imaginekpk) reported

    Few months back, everyone wanted to move to Signal for the WA privacy settings. Now WA is down. And most people seem to have uninstalled Signal. Messaging crippled just for a while & we already feel the pinch. @signalapp

  • m2licee_ 🗿TreVibes™⭐⭐🗿 (@m2licee_) reported

    @WhatsApp Dude its everyone, not "some people". Imagine the money people have lost because their chat is down.😢 Might have to move to @telegram or @signalapp 🤔

  • alexlllc Alex Lau (@alexlllc) reported

    @Snowden @signalapp Except Signal also went down on Sep 27 😐

  • PappuAvakaya P̴a̴p̴p̴u̴A̴v̴a̴k̴a̴y̴a̴ 🕉️🇮🇳 (@PappuAvakaya) reported

    @OCTOYT12 @TechFactsRafee @signalapp Even I'm unable to access anything maybe my network also down

  • guidoV4 Chaotic Human (@guidoV4) reported

    @Snowden @signalapp Though I would even go further & instead recommend @BriarApp (atleast for all Android-users as it unfortunately doesn't have an iOS-version), a truly decentralized messenger without centralized servers capable of taking down the whole network with them if they fail. #whatsappdown

  • dpasghar_ DPA (@dpasghar_) reported

    @Snowden @signalapp It’s a meme, could it be possible to prevent a **** ton of people deleting their FB accounts after last nights interview, FB just said **** it take the whole thing down & wait for the reactionary crowd to forget? I know it’s a stretch but…can’t delete them if they’re not online

  • babak_gh Babak Gh (@babak_gh) reported

    @Snowden @signalapp Seem @signalapp has problem on registering your device now! Already overloaded?

  • Tomas_Toman1972 Tomáš TOMAN (@Tomas_Toman1972) reported

    @Snowden @signalapp There are still only problems with Facebook and it is no wonder that a lot of users are leaving Facebook!FB is to blame for this,as well as its behavior towards users and companies that block their accounts!And yes,we've been using Signal Messenger for a long time!Or Threema. ;-)

  • gpeters_zim Gregory (@gpeters_zim) reported

    The whole world has stopped because of Facebook and WhatsApp outage. Been telling everyone to get on @signalapp and @telegram for ages now. We can’t be held hostage like this.

  • watsontom100 Tom Watson (@watsontom100) reported

    WhatsApp down, good excuse for you to try @signalapp!

  • globalnodeo Saitocrates🍥 (@globalnodeo) reported

    @Snowden @signalapp please don't promote $MOB coin via signal app. Ed. you're better than that. want to solve the Infura problem (yeah you know its a problem). global media also owned by infura.. well there is a solution. $SAITO on #Web3 fixes this.

  • canonizer Paul Lucas (@canonizer) reported

    I would sacrifice #whatsapp forever if #facebook also stayed down. Like, that would be fine. Does anyone want to meet up on @signalapp?

  • Debajyoti0901 Debajyoti Halder (@Debajyoti0901) reported

    @Snowden @signalapp Don't you think the problem is in the centralized architecture? That this same thing can happen to @signalapp too?

  • 40runner1 Wags (@40runner1) reported

    @signalapp help a newb out… what are the reasons someone should use Signal over Apple iMessages?

  • Torials Victoria Saxby (@Torials) reported

    Not going to lie, having @signalapp is a definite bonus at the moment as @WhatsApp is down! Worth switching! #whatsappdown #Signal

  • BoteroGp Gloria Botero (@BoteroGp) reported

    @JulieSLalonde @AndrewJDodds @signalapp I’m in Dubai. Let me know how I can help.
