@legalize_logic @Snowden @signalapp I know. But as products, they are different products. They are not dependent on each other. Just because the owner is same, doesn't mean they will go down together.

Turn your @signalapp on!! It was the only way I could talk to my family (half a globe away) when the #outage happened today with the WhatsApp, FB and Insta. Say no to the #monopoly! 🌎🌍🌏

@hermandeperman @Snowden @signalapp Millions of ppl use signal since years, many just don't care about privacy and stick to WhatsApp crap because of convenience, that's the problem. The network effect and comfort with using what everyone else does is leading to catastrophic events from time to time. Rocket + matrix

@signalapp There should be an option to opt-in for people who install Signal to have people where their number is in the address book be notified that they are on Signal The option not to receive these notifications is a bit World upside down!

@jay_kotakone Then I still would be talking and videocalling, and sharing pictures and videos to my friends on @signalapp without any issues.

@fluidsonic @Snowden @signalapp I also see wisdom in Snowden‘s position: „You are trying to deal with an outage, yet your bigger problem is that you are using a platform that is exploiting you.“

@danfriedmanme @Facebook @signalapp People use whatsapp because it’s free. Otherwise they could pay for messaging. I find this hand wringing ridiculous. It’s a free service and therefore it doesn’t owe anyone anything.

@808constituent @signalapp I've always found it odd that anyone would use WhatsApp- a supposed encrypted messaging service that is owned by *Facebook* when they could he using Signal

@signalapp @signalapp no one can know how it feels like working on outage except you because you have experience of working on it every second day… I wish good luck to Signal and team

@jhfrith It's a good reminder for people to consider switching to @signalapp , since it's both unrelated to Facebook and more secure than other competitors. It doesn't solve the communication crisis, but it can help alleviate future ones.

@iamproofoflife @signalapp Your contacts don't need to have the app for their names to show up. Mine is working fine so it's a problem with the signal servers because of lots of people joining. You can send sms messages to people who have signal and those that don't.

@CliffordAgius I wasn't aware of the outage until I started to get txt and @signalapp messages saying 'is mum ok, she's not answering me' (why they didn't text the wife I don't know). I quit #Facebook years ago and don't miss any aspect of it.
