@signalapp @CaitlinLong_ I appreciate the hard work, just donated to help with new servers. However, this period seems to point out the centralization risk. What's the potential for your servers to be coerced offline, especially when needed . How can this risk be mitigated? Thank You.

@ShivAroor @signalapp It's new. Unexpectedly many people have started using it. And Signal was unprepared to entertain those. So now since its demand is increasing, they would surely update their features and provide good service.

@camsoft2000 @signalapp You can "rebuild" trust ? How did Facebook build or maintain it ? Over the past decade of data use and privacy issues ? I believe your family can trust the fact that with Signal their data isn't being sold off or breached to enrich people who will reinvest to do it more.

@signalapp Now am not sure if I should be totally dependent on Signal as my preferred primary communication medium. Left stranded as my Signal Web is not working.

@signalapp Dear @signalapp, it has been more than 12 hours, since you promised to fix the issue asap, Signal is still not working. Can you please kindly advise, as to when will Signal be back online & functioning? As you can imagine, 12 hours of total communication break down is not okay.

Once they have made the fix and everything gets stable. I would love to read a tech blog of the engineering difficulties @signalapp is facing in the past few weeks.

@hadjivolakas @signalapp I'm just worried that tomorrow it might become a subscription service . I might pay for it but parents won't . They don't understand privacy and all this anyway
-
Anirudh (@theobile) reported
Have been preaching to my friends about moving to @signalapp from Whatsapp for some years now. It has become my primary/daily medium to talk to a bunch of close friends. All it took was 1 tweet from @elonmusk and servers go down the whole day. Forcing me to resort to WhatsApp 😤

Carissa (@car_dgs) reported
@signalapp what’s the ETA on service?

Drew (@buchwasa) reported
@Harvey114643228 @ea_mlopezc6 @signalapp It's a non profit who just received millions of users, I think it's alright if they're having issues. Who could've expected a mass influx of users at one time?

Mark Patel (@mark_patel144) reported
@Bpjs24969751 @signalapp Well they are providing free messanging service with privacy on the priority, no ads, no charges, no selling of data, and all of a sudden surge of new users. Its easy to criticize but not that easy to handle this much at once try it yourself.

@WhatsApp You have got plans to update privacy terms to Indian users, but doesn't use user data for UK. Still don't understand how can privacy issues changes geographically. I hope the GoI @GoI_MeitY is looking into this issue seriously. BTW, we are moving to @signalapp

@SajidMhmod @MohsenIrani12 @signalapp Let's not forget in the early days of whatsapp it would be down fairly often.

@signalapp @kurtbardella Have you ever noticed that if you should have an interruption in service, your internet provider gives you contact information to report it consisting of a website address, email address and phone number?

BKKBhoy (@BhoyBkk) reported
I appreciate your hard work to get the service back up and running @signalapp

@NightFuryHTTUD @signalapp This is because of their capacity issue caused by a massive number of new users, check their last few days of tweets

@jtmajorx @signalapp Seems to be coming good again gradually. I am still having a hard time resending messages that failed previously, with several ‘partially sent’ errors. Some of those resolved themselves after a couple of tries.
