@signalapp Can't you guys refrain from using Amazon and Microsoft servers for your service?

@signalapp Unfortunately, severe censorship is rampant in Iran, and Facebook has always supported the Iranian government. There is not much help from the international community to deal with this situation. Thank you for your effort.

@signalapp @wedelapan Hey, I'm on iPhone 6, iOS 12.4.8 - larger group chats (40+) won't recieve my messages ("not sent to server symbol"), while I CAN post to small groups. I know at least one more person to have this error. Please fix that, big chats are about to move back to Whatsapp :(

@theyblinked @signalapp I’m actually pretty surprised someone hasn’t built it already. Distributed mesh Twitter. The problem I suspect is there’s not practical way to index it. BitTorrent needs trackers, IP needs DNS, etc. As far as I know nobody has quite cracked that nut. OpenID came close?

@artium_x @signalapp Most of us in the US are ashamed that our government did those things. There are better ways to oppose injustice, but if making it unclear where to put the bombs means that the bombs don't get dropped then its worth doing. Signal is only trying to help.

@signalapp Again, love you guys. Give money. The whole thing. When you achieve WhatsApp levels of reliability, then you can dunk. This premise only holds if the service is available to the most informed data protection folks. Ahem.

@pledgeforeurope @signalapp I ended up uninstalling it and starting again. Lost some unopened messages but seems now to work. Fingers crossed it is now operational. I don't recall ever being asked for a passphrase hence the problems.

@GwynbleiddiuM @signalapp @windscribecom (their twitter says „meme focused“ but if you look into their privacy policy and comparisons with other VPNs it gets clear that they are good. Only real downside is that they‘re based in Canada, but if you‘re not doing anything the FBI doesn‘t like, that shouldn‘t be a problem)

@MattRixman @miladra65 @signalapp Sorry but I don't get how a messaging service on the blockchain would work. Blockchain works by peer-validation, and there needs to be some sort of "reward" for validators. It would work to verify private keys and integrity of devices but not to transmit texts. That's DNS and SSL
