  • nina1bg Nina Bogdanova (@nina1bg) reported

    @signalapp any update about service ?

  • tprstly Theo Priestley (@tprstly) reported

    @WylesOne @signalapp True, but under these conditions when you're trying to convince friends and family to move, and you need to stay in touch with them easily this doesn't help.

  • MattLebrao Matheus Rocha 🇧🇷 (@MattLebrao) reported

    @CKorenbeusser @FullStackFool @signalapp Yeah, but they were expecting that. They're a major service of a major company. Its structure for its services are already born big and ready to receive large amounts of clients. (+)

  • LawMic1997 LawMic 😷 (@LawMic1997) reported

    @signalapp Support #Signal, we will and are willing to wait patiently for a better service that cherishes privacy above money.

  • MattLebrao Matheus Rocha 🇧🇷 (@MattLebrao) reported

    @CKorenbeusser @FullStackFool @signalapp When you're an indie, you have to scale as you grow, since there's no telling how successful you're gonna be. Also, Disney did major marketing for its service (which also indicates they were ready for it), when was the last time you saw a Signal ad?

  • BhushanFate ßђυsнáи ƒムтé (@BhushanFate) reported

    @signalapp ask help from hike.. As they are officially closed they may help you regarding handling of the technical issues...

  • ashcasson Ash K. Casson (@ashcasson) reported

    @signalapp Is it frustrating that Signal is down? Yes. Will I be going elsewhere? Hell no. I'll wait patiently and know that when I can use it again, it will still be the most secure option there is. Respect and appreciation to you.

  • _atjn Anton (@_atjn) reported

    @karim_dorzadeh @Snowden @signalapp No one is claiming that the E2E protocol is insecure, the problem is that it is only used selectively. Telegram has access to all of your contacts and access to all your normal chats and group chats. How is that not a security issue?

  • PreciselyPriv Precisely Private (@PreciselyPriv) reported

    @signalapp Any ETA/update on when the service will be fully operation again?

  • pwg254 Paul-Willem (@pwg254) reported

    @janvlug @signalapp I would like the source of the outage... I am willing to donate to the signal foundation as well

  • PreciselyPriv Precisely Private (@PreciselyPriv) reported

    @signalapp Any update on how things are going on your end and/or an ETA on when the service will be fully operational again?

  • janitchy_janik Swoop (@janitchy_janik) reported

    @signalapp still have problems? Can’t send messages

  • imRabbillGani Rabbill Gani (@imRabbillGani) reported

    @signalapp It can happen, suddenly way too much customers using it will bring up lot of bugs within system.. hoping to fix it As soon as possible.. good luck to @signalapp team

  • JessicaMulein Jessica Mulein (@JessicaMulein) reported

    @CedarStoneTower @ashtonpittman @signalapp Technically some on-phone text analysis pre-sending could maybe help but that's.. yeah.. not how that platform works.

  • RamTiwa98855793 Ram Tiwari (@RamTiwa98855793) reported

    @signalapp "Signal is experiencing technical difficulties. We are working hard to restore service as quickly as possible." . This is the msg showing in my signal app plz do something...

  • OndejBordovsk1 Ondřej Bordovský (@OndejBordovsk1) reported

    @milo4007 @signalapp Signal is not disturbing, people use it naturally because it's safer and more private, show me any server that could gain 4200% of users and not have problems

  • theveritas4 Truth and Justice (@theveritas4) reported

    @shanedk @camsoft2000 @signalapp Personally, we pay for good service. WhatsApp used to be subscription on Android and BlackBerry. It was as nominal annual fee but worth it.

  • offroad_soul offroad.soul (@offroad_soul) reported

    @signalapp My service seems to be back after storage clearance and relogin. Few groups got deleted from my list and few recovered on thr own

  • hot2use John Ness 🇬🇧🇨🇭 (@hot2use) reported

    @signalapp I sponsored US$ 50 to help with the infrastructure costs. What is everybody else doing to help Signal? Thank you @signalapp

  • markus_ottela maqp (@markus_ottela) reported

    @psiv_ @terribletension @signalapp So the abuser has your phone number, and you don't have their phone number. Does this issue mean the attacker can see you have Signal? If yes, what attack options do they then have? Can they be blocked by adding the phone number to block list? Please help me understand this!

  • KingSalibah Jimmy Salibah (@KingSalibah) reported

    @signalapp Funnily, I hear some people have problems with their iPhone, but not Android.

  • j4s0ngr33n constant pain (@j4s0ngr33n) reported

    @signalapp 12hrs down now. Had to resort to using baked in msg app on my Nexus for time being.

  • atishsanyal Atish Sanyal (@atishsanyal) reported

    @EdB_SP @signalapp I don't understand the problem. Divine in your phonebook, presumably your friend, joins your messaging service. Why is it a security lapse to inform you?

  • amandafclark Amanda 👩🏽‍💻 (@amandafclark) reported

    @igor_ostrovskiy @signalapp Outraged over and outage ;) x

  • karim_dorzadeh Karim Dorzadeh (@karim_dorzadeh) reported

    @_atjn @Snowden @signalapp I am not denying that the cloud chats are technically possible to be accessed by senior staffs at Telegram. So there is this issue of trust, rather than what these security analysts are putting axe on Telegram's growth To me TGs track record proves to be worthy of putting trust

  • wangubaagu ワング (@wangubaagu) reported

    You really have to fix #Signal. And also. There is no ringing when people call me. So I always miss calls. What's that about, dear @signalapp ?

  • nowuseeme007 Nowuseeme007 (@nowuseeme007) reported

    @signalapp You guys still down in Australia or not by choice?

  • theveritas4 Truth and Justice (@theveritas4) reported

    @signalapp To get around the issue of NFO, we might suggest a nominal annual subscription for users. While WhatsApp was free on Apple, Android and BlackBerry users paid an annual service fee off $0.99. WhatsApp eventually got rid of it.

  • MuizzuMuhammad Muhammad Muizzuddin (@MuizzuMuhammad) reported

    @signalapp I'm unable to register۔۔ Could you please help me out
