Signal Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Tim (@timderoode) reported@durov @durov the early OTF grants (2013-2016) for @signalapp are publicly documented. This might create a perception issue for its independence but doesn’t prove active/ongoing US gov backing or influence. Or you have other information?
-
The Earl of Wankinshire (@dfsgdfgdfdgf34) reported@yegortk @signalapp No it's a simple problem we want privacy
-
Shaeno (@Shaenooo) reported@signalapp Isn't your app in the top 3 for hosting CP? Not surprised you have a problem with this
-
Liran Cohen (CTV + CSFS) (@itsLIRAN) reported@simulx4 @signalapp I'm working on it! It's a hard problem to solve, and even with my current solution there is some metadata leakage. Some of the metadata can be obfuscated for protocols that aren't many-to-many in large numbers.
-
Dustin (BusySignal-KE2EFX) (@DustinFinn) reportedOMFG - these arm chair security people calling this recent issue where iOS notifications where preview messages were held - calling it a @signalapp issue are just making me nuts. It’s an #OpSec issue / if you’re concerned - security is not one app it’s an entire process.
-
FAFO (@areyoukay) reported@topicswithatee @signalapp Stop giving kids smart phones Problem solved It’s on the lazy *** parents
-
engicom Africa (@engipolity) reported@WIFI_DE_ @signalapp Wr had the same issue for weeks. They don't even reply to messages. I am giving up on Signal.. it looks like they are shutting us out.. i used to have the account then changed my phone. Phew . Their nightmare started.
-
Stephen Ballion (@mountainofspoon) reported@femalepencil Because it’s owned by @Meta which is a terrible company - try @signalapp
-
Leo (@LeoVasanko) reported@NivalCat @BrendanEich @signalapp I find it a bigger problem that they still require a phone to run. Cannot install on a PC (Signal Desktop still requires a phone to be running and proxy messages to it).
-
Nicky Santoro (@burner8787) reported@topicswithatee @signalapp Take the phone away from the kids if they’re not trustworthy. Problem solved.
-
Rash1825 (@darksaviortweet) reported@signalapp Signal backup change is terrible UX. Thousands of small files instead of one backup = extremely slow transfers. 10GB taking 24+ hours to copy. Faster backup creation but unusable for migration. Please fix this or restore single-file backups.
-
Ian Bradbury (@bradbury2010) reported@PaulSmithDM @signalapp I thought "crap parents are so terrified of" might have been a clue that I agree with you completely. The missing tone of voice makes it harder though. I regard this "ooh the kiddies" as utterly despicable. The problem now is to find a party that won't do it.

LianZaKim @Kim (@liankimpi) reported@signalapp Please a proxy to be able to login
-
Ari (@arixanxim) reported@signalapp give us closed captioning for video calls, this is a massive accessibility issue!

MG (@taradasana) reported@signalapp @404mediaco And what have you done to fix careless whisper? @signalapp
