    @signalapp Rule of the internet: If someone asks for your verification code, they’re trying to steal your account. No legit service will ever ask for it. Stay sharp.

    @signalapp appears to be down!

    @gg8866401 @signalapp A proper execution would fix all of this.

    @kanavtwt Problem is not with @signalapp. They just seem to be caught in the OS cross-fire.

    @signalapp no one else having issues sending from the windows app? all my recent inbound messages come through, but sending just has a constant circle

    Ben has opinions. (@RealAndersonBen) reported

    @chriskalos_xyz @signalapp They still have servers. They just don't store unencrypted messages or encryption keys on them. Also, they are Amazon's servers that are down. Everything that uses AWS is affected.

    @signalapp Military-grade encryption. Zero infrastructure compromises. And then: “Hi, this is Signal Support Bot, please confirm your verification code.” The math was never the problem.

    @signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

    Signal is wild. I send a message and it arrives to the other person whenever Signal feels like it. Real-time messaging? More like 'eventually messaging.' WhatsApp with all its problems at least delivers in the present tense. @signalapp fix it

    @signalapp Why should I use your service instead of WhatsApp?

    @Shahinlooo Families in Iran cannot even confirm whether their loved ones are safe. This blackout is dangerous. Help people of Iran by sending Starlink🆘🆘 @Meta @Signalapp #IranMassacre #DigitalBlackoutIran #KingRezaPahlavi

    @ProtonPrivacy My main issue with @signalapp is I cannot use the same account on more than one smartphone

  • bdmurdock

    @Gold_Phishy @signalapp Unfortunately registration lock is not on by default. Probably because people have a hard time remembering their PIN, and Signal doesn't want you writing it down

  • Gold_Phishy
    Goldfish 🟠 (@Gold_Phishy) reported

    @bdmurdock @signalapp It does. As a security guy, I don't mind a few seconds to secure. I have however seen people putting in a lot of effort to get round our controls at work, for ease of use. I'll always try and have a chat and see what the actual issue is, and if we can do something.

    @signalapp Day 79. Silence is deadly. Iranians are being killed in the dark. Please, use your voice to help us be heard. #DigitalBlackOutIran #IranRevolution2026

    not_cyotee (@NCyotee) reported

    @aaron0v @signalapp Simple, Signal controls your keys, and the app delivery lifecycle. Yes, it is OS, and anyone can compile and run it. For now. They systematically shut down any popular alternate builds. And they obfuscate the compiled code. You have to use their servers, so at any point they can change the underlying behavior by pushing and update. And the simple fact, if they can recover your key for you, you have no guarantee they can't recover your key for themselves. Matrix allows any client. You control your key. No recovery. If you lose your key, you lose access to all your old messages.

    @Shahinlooo Millions of Iranians cannot contact their families or receive emergency alerts.The Islamic Republic regime of the mullahs has shut down the internet inside Iran to prevent the voice of truth of the Iranian people from reaching the world. @Cloudflare @Signalapp

    fabian (@fabianleitner) reported

    @signalapp I would argue that that's more of a people-being-naive issue than anything Signal as a company could control

  • signalvoyager
    SignalVoyager (@signalvoyager) reported

    @notesnook @signalapp Signal devs must lead the way leading other devs to takre control back. They should guide other devs. Yet they follow common protocols and win stupid prices like this. Then cry for Apple support to help them fix things. I expect better from Signal. (n/n)

    @signalapp @404mediaco Apple could just read it from Apple Push Notification service right?

    @callebtc @signalapp @smspoolnet even tho i dislike the titan, port your number to Google Voice for $10 then keep the free service. only problem is it registers as VoiP so doesn't always authenticate as a true phone number. but it verifies with Signal

    Apple kind of fixed the @signalapp notification cache issue. Admitted a notification log issue, yet the iOS apps still require deleting to remove cache.

    @signalapp Phone number + recovery PIN are phishable. FIDO2 hardware tokens are not. That's an architecture choice, not a "universal messaging problem." SimpleGoX ships FIDO2 in 048. No phone number to hijack in the first place. 🔐
