Part of the problem with alternative messengers might be explained with this phenomenon. Sending a message to your friends with #WhatsApp: "Hey, dude, I just want to inform you: I sent you a message with @signalapp or @ThreemaApp rsp. Won't you answer me?

@rucci_harucci @signalapp You have to use something to send text messages at some point. So he should use the best thing which currently exists. If Signal betrays us at some point (which I doubt but who knows), he can switch to something else. Whatever he uses, he will face this potential problem anyway.

@signalapp Your mac app became unusable! I am not able to import contacts, and if it does import them, and I send a message from my mac, it’s not appearing on the other devices (phone, iPad)…I’ve been using signal on mac for 2 years without issues but now there’s a problem.

@Qo_Olamilekan @signalapp Had the same problem. At first quite a while ago. Fixed it by toying with the notification parameters in my phone's settings (Android user). Never had the issue since

@signalapp Those were surprised that the service went down after million downloads a day are ridiculous. You couldn't possibly be prepared for such an amount within a day. Good Job!

Question for @signalapp @telegram Why do I need a SIM-card / phone number to use Signal or Telegram? How does this help privacy? Please remove that requirement.

@signalapp I have still issues with sending photos and movies, especially movies. It take to much time, yesterday sending 10-15 photos took ca. 30 min. And no, this is not my net problem. Sending these same photos thru WhatsApp in the same time took ca. 45 sec...
