    @elonmusk @signalapp with current cloud providers billing policy of pay as you go makes it difficult to sustain any open source non profit products handling big data. We need non profit cloud service providers for non profit products like signal. can Elon start one?

  • 90minutelife Haripal Baluja (@90minutelife) reported

    @AkashGooner96 @signalapp Ah yeah, they might be having trouble with load balancing it seems, it's been a day for me too, maybe it'll get fixed by the morning

  • NaziaSpeaks Nazia R. (@NaziaSpeaks) reported

    @signalapp I've noticed the banner is gone about the technical issues but I'm still noticing with certain contacts that messages are "sent" but not "delivered". Have you looked into this? Thanks!

  • marroneist 𝕄.𝔼.𝕄𝕒𝕣𝕣𝕠𝕟𝕖 (@marroneist) reported

    If you're still having @signalapp issues, consider giving them money instead of telling them how wronged you feel about their free app not working perfectly.

    @signalapp Still having problems in the Netherlands

  • teslatrey Trey 🇺🇲 (@teslatrey) reported

    @signalapp How is the scaling up going? I don't seem to have any issues anymore.

  • JoseLvizG Jose L. (@JoseLvizG) reported

    @elonmusk @signalapp @teslaownersSV , I'm already on signal, don't let me down 🤨 regards

  • AkashGooner96 Akash Ghosh (@AkashGooner96) reported

    @90minutelife @signalapp Mine is working now though. But the issue lasted for me nearly all day.

  • acengizgok Cengoooo (@acengizgok) reported

    @signalapp pls fix that **** i dont wanna use other app.

  • JohnShenLee JohnShen Lee (@JohnShenLee) reported

    Time to opt out @signalapp after 1 Day of system down.

  • JM_Coppede 「Martin #Coppedè Monges 」 (@JM_Coppede) reported from Madrid, Comunidad de Madrid

    @Lewion @signalapp To be honest, I don't care how many people were involved in the process, they didn't think so many people were coming and there was advertising of Silicon Valley celebrities and they said "come here" and there was the problem. I admire these people and I hope they do well.

  • mshirlaw Matt S (@mshirlaw) reported

    @Lazer @signalapp Still have the red notification about technical difficulties in Australia but messages are going through. I think there is still probably some issues to resolve.

  • ci_a7med Valar Morghulis (@ci_a7med) reported

    @signalapp This my working field, I understand that the infrastructure won't deal with this huge numbers and it will crash. But to keep down for over 24h till now it's really disappointing

  • ChirpyChirpsAll Chirpy Chirp (@ChirpyChirpsAll) reported

    @signalapp is the app simply frozen or are you still working on the problem #29hoursnow #justasking

  • AliyaRahman Aliya Rahman (@AliyaRahman) reported

    Daaaaaaaaaaamn @signalapp is still down? GET OUTTA HERE COLONIZERS, we are just trying to go about our days!

  • Al4ric Justicar Alaric (@Al4ric) reported

    @signalapp 24 hours and still issues? In IT world this is disaster! Very disappointed.

  • Rajid Not in the precipitate (@Rajid) reported

    @NovakDaniel @Viss @signalapp As HAL should have said, “This sort of thing has cropped up before, and it has always been due to program designer error.”

  • abhijitgore Abhijit Gore (@abhijitgore) reported

    .@signalapp any updates on the outage?

  • 90minutelife Haripal Baluja (@90minutelife) reported

    @ArseneLegacySr @signalapp Others have faced this issue too, they might be having trouble with handling the load, maybe it'll be fixed in the day

  • TheSakibPathan Sakib Pathan (@TheSakibPathan) reported

    @signalapp Are your call services (voice and video) working or they are still down? Thanks

  • alenkomljen Alen (@alenkomljen) reported

    I would like to read the technical details about @signalapp outage. Opportunity to learn

  • nicc_ap Sai Nallapaneni (@nicc_ap) reported

    @signalapp Couple of things (1) I don’t need a notification for every contact who has joined the service. (2) I need a bulk edit feature, to delete all these messages in one shot. It makes the app unusable.

  • vjolii Vjoli (@vjolii) reported

    @signalapp you didn't plan scaling up? What's up with the errors?

  • ryanprior DNA schedule (@ryanprior) reported

    Hey @signalapp I'm getting thousands of messages from a contact saying "Error handling incoming message" on my desktop, or "Bad encrypted message" on my phone. I assume something got misconfigured during all the excitement of the past few days. Is there a solution?

  • CampuzanoJoe Joseph Campuzano (@CampuzanoJoe) reported

    @ShahidWorld @elonmusk @signalapp Node would be a terrible choice for this type of application.

  • chigger62 Mike (@chigger62) reported

    @martin_gerlach @Mika0287 @signalapp I know I'm late to this convo, but I just sent a test to my wife's iphone from my android, went thru and got a reply back, but my app still showing big red box at top saying experiencing tech problems.

  • optimaltweeting OPtimal (@optimaltweeting) reported

    @squirrelly1357 @signalapp @MarkDiStef Millions and millions of users joined within just days, what do you expect? If let's say Parler suddenly had every Twitter user on their platform, they would also be down. This is basic IT stuff.
