Aaaand.... @WhatsApp is down!!! We should start using Twitter as the default messaging platform! If only all of my friends were on @signalapp.

@In0as @signalapp The whole concept of a e2ee messaging service that requires your phone number is rediculous, but, sms integration made it an okay trade off. Without that, no reason to stay, much better apps that don't require phone numbers are out there.

@signalapp This is a terrible idea. At least add a setting to still allow SMS integration for those of us smart enough to know the difference.

@signalapp "ensuring people aren’t hit with unexpected messaging bills" Guys this sounds like an UI issue.. A dev problem. I can't see this doing anything else other than hit your adoption rate.

the fact that signal *requires* me to make a gc name keeps me from reaching out to so many people,,, someone at @signalapp pls fix this 🙏🏽

@roycoding @signalapp I don't think @signalapp has cared much about the community or their users. It's always been mission driven over everything else, i.e. we think this, and now we're going to shove it down your throat

@signalapp when did y’all start using a “verification required” to prove I’m not a bot? Are bots a problem on the Signal app?

@Kenyans Start using @signalapp, far more better app than WhatsApp and no problems at all.

I guess I need to walk back my support of @signalapp through donations. Facing my second loss of message history due to a known and reported bug/issue with no real response from Signal support. It's a real bummer considering Signal is my primary comms platform.

@signalapp Terrible idea. I thought you guys were changing the game by making security convenient. The number of texting apps I want to interact with is exactly one.

I agree with everything in this podcast & that removing SMS from @signalapp is a terrible idea. Even when SMS is removed they will still demand phone numbers from users 🤷

@superking1815 Use @signalapp, no problems at all.

Since #WhatsApp is down right now, you might just want to do the right thing and install @Element_hq and @signalapp and beginn ditching the Facebook spyware. Tell all your contacts too. You are too valuable to engage with a company like Facebook.

@wa_status It seems WhatsApp group messages are down, only personal messages work. Another reason why everyone should have @signalapp installed, at least as a backup.
