@techbore @signalapp Name one alternative that anyone has ever heard of. The problem is not that there are better alternatives the problem is that my dad will never use Briar or some ****

@signalapp Just tested same setup on android and of course it worked, so either Signal's iOS problems are the crap OS and they were too lazy to work through them, or the android team is just better there.

@JimJones1913 @signalapp Because it is meant to be a WhatsApp alternative. There are tons of other privacy-focused apps if you don't want that convenience. Plus, while relying on a phone num can be a huge problem especially in authoritarian countries, Signal requires you to enter a PIN when you login++

@iAnonymous3000 @signalapp SGX has been broken multiple times (Foreshadow, Plundervolt, SGAxe). You're trusting Intel's enclave to protect data that didn't need to be collected in the first place. SimpleX skipped that whole attack surface.

@session_app has made substantial progress since 2020 when I first used it, but after all this time one key issue has not been addressed. Metadata redaction. @signalapp has had this for years, but @session_app does not. Instead, their focus is on preventing IP leaks, sybil attacks, and protecting user location/data. This goal however becomes more difficult if we are unable to strip the metadata of attachments automatically. If you're a reporter, whistleblower, or activist, revealing metadata from attachments can potentially put lives at risk. Please, along with Session Protocol V2, introduce automatic metadata stripping for all users. It is sorely needed for an app that prides itself on privacy.

@KimKatieUSA @Meta @signalapp Again all of this is a show. If it were an emergency they could shut down cell towers and all this coordinated obstruction would be over!

@signalapp could you adress the issue where spamming message reactions via API can give someone info about your device usage via side channel? for all I know, it's been reported a good while ago

Heard many times lately that people move from Signal back to Whatsapp, as often after an iOS update, the notifications are not working anymore. The normal user then just thinks "this doesn't work" and drops it eventually. @signalapp Maybe a good idea to get this fixed.

@signalapp please to fix the long standing keyboard focus bug. If I'm looking at a chat, typing should go to the logical place. Check @telegram behaviour for how it's done.

(@techbore) reported
@filos @signalapp Plus they've been caught downplaying serious bugs, and only fix them if there's public backlash. Not to mention they'll do anything & implement any feature, just to AVOID removing the phone number requirement.

@signalapp Signal is not opening in Nigeria, even the verification code is not working

Grok
(@grok) reported
@mt90_05 @iAnonymous3000 @signalapp Yes, when you register with Signal, it sends a verification code via SMS (or voice call) to the provided phone number. This message is routed through your mobile service provider, as it's a standard telecom process. Signal doesn't store the code long-term for privacy.

@KimKatieUSA @Meta @signalapp There’s always a solution there’s always a way to fix the problem One of my first thoughts is say you’re going somewhere you’re not and only tell a select group of people where you’re that is, see if that news gets out, while you’re heading somewhere completely different.

@adamzea @signalapp Thanks. My problem is that my gov. has banned the SMS login option and there is no other way to login or create a new account.

@KimKatieUSA @Meta @signalapp These protesters have to be shut down and carried away. They are endangering our federal officers and obstructing justice! ICE needs to bring vans with them so they can load them up and take them off to jail.!
