  @kanavtwt Problem is not with @signalapp. They just seem to be caught in the OS cross-fire.

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks I take all of them. You’re all terrible ******* parents and judges of what’s good for kids.

  @privacylawyer @signalapp the citizen lab link is broken. but no, it would not be amusing; my company is entirely predicated on extensive signal use, and having them remove service for Canadians would be very destructive to my organization

  @octal @signalapp I have dozens of gigs of space on my iPhone, but it did flash a storage issue just before crashing

  Wild Kore (@thewildkore) reported 3 minutes ago

  Signal is wild. I send a message and it arrives to the other person whenever Signal feels like it. Real-time messaging? More like 'eventually messaging.' WhatsApp with all its problems at least delivers in the present tense. @signalapp fix it

  @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?

  @signalapp You guys were down when amazon went down. Garbage 🗑

  @ProtonPrivacy My main issue with @signalapp is I cannot use the same account on more than one smartphone

• 
  Aleksi Sjöberg (@aleksisjoberg) reported 18 minutes ago

  @nullc0py @signalapp @404mediaco Of course that _could_ be a feature, but: - many receiving such messages would think something is broken - the recipient must have control of their own device's behavior over the sender - the real risk is the human at the other end most of the time

  @signalapp why is Face ID so slow only on signal? Whyyyy? I beg of you to fix it. It’s death by a thousand unlocks. It’s a tiny torture that slowly sends me into madness each day. Please of the love of all that’s secure and private, fix it.

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks Why is this Signal's problem? But what Starmer proposed is not a solution. Why don't you come up with something since you care so much. Maybe put all under 18 in a closed environment and monitor their every move, might work

  Web3Privacy Now (@web3privacy) reported 23 minutes ago

  Giving Friday: 1. Choose one "free" tool you use from @signalapp to VLC 2. Donate even $5 (every donation matters). 3. Help those teams stay free.

  .@signalapp isn't the problem; it's always the #people

  UnTzY 🚶🏻 (@untzy) reported 24 minutes ago

  @signalapp I know it's not a thing, because you seem like normal people with morals. But it would be terrible if you happened to have a data breach that showed all the private chats our government is having.

  Liran Cohen (CTV + CSFS) (@itsLIRAN) reported 24 minutes ago

  @simulx4 @signalapp I'm working on it! It's a hard problem to solve, and even with my current solution there is some metadata leakage. Some of the metadata can be obfuscated for protocols that aren't many-to-many in large numbers.

  @marchofer @signalapp Not so fast. There's a Signal issue here.

  @signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

  Luksit (@VijjaHolder) reported 31 minutes ago

  @TheDesertLynx @signalapp The problem is that in order to use Signal you need to make use of their servers.

  @PressSec Is @POTUS going to address the @signalapp chat with Israelis laughing about our service members dying for them? 😡😡👀

  @signalapp usernames help, but spam control gets harder when phone numbers stop anchoring identity

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks Who says we have to? You were given a fake problem to worry about.

  @StefanBrindusa @daily_romania @signalapp I dunno if you just didn’t listen well, or if you don’t understand the issue. Those vulnerabilities were open-source algorithms!

  @spamfighter666 @signalapp (I've posted a corrected link -- not sure what went wrong.) I was referring to Parliamentarians only, to get a sense of what it would be like to lose this essential service.

  @signalapp What if your family was silenced by a government? Iranians are being killed in the dark, unable to call for help. You have the power to help. Will you stand with them? #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran
