@signalapp Guys. The outage is understandable. But the lack of communication is unacceptable. What’s going on? How much longer? What happened? What’s your plan?

@PurpleRiver_Dev @signalapp Did you try to restart the encryption before? I suspect it's still related to the server outage yesterday.

@signalapp Still down in the UK. Any ETA for resolution? I moved quite a few groups across from WhatsApp and I’m now risking a mutiny! I still like you guys anyway...

@signalapp Elon should have helped them to upgrade servers prior to his tweet. I have used this app for years and love it. Mine has now been down for 24 hours. He should have known what an impact his tweet would have on the app infrastructure. Kinda a jerk move really.

@signalapp Ahoy! I have someone (say Mr. T) in my contacts that's having trouble with the app. A number of people in our group chat are seeing "Bad encrypted message" periodically coming from T, meanwhile the rest of us are successfully chatting on the app. Any idea what's up?

@signalapp It's been over 24 hours now, any timeline of when you are able to fix this. We are migrating our groups to Signal and this outage is not exactly helping.

@LemurZA @MohsenIrani12 @signalapp True — I remember it going down for half a day in early days. Went down for few hours when FB took over.

As much as I love @signalapp for IM, I also love that @element_hq runs a @matrixdotorg server for me. No hassle, no availability problems, still strong end-to-end encryption. Might be an option for communities that don't want to share phone numbers. #matrix #privacy
