I interviewed with Open Garden a while back hoping Firechat was the proto-answer to this problem but they had moved on to more venture friendly pursuits. I wish a non profit would take on the challenge, @signalapp perhaps?

@peteconnolly @signalapp Depends entirely on the bandwidth allowance you get from your ISP but in theory it shouldn’t cause a problem since only Signal traffic is accepted. Most Signal traffic is just messages not large files. Each message is probably just a few kilobytes.

@sahirs @signalapp That’s why the code for anyone to start one easily and cheaply has been released. Yes they can find and block proxies. But then proxy admins can shut down the blocked ones and open new ones in like less than half an hour.

After that outage, @signalapp QoS has become really really bad. Ally important chats are now on Signal, and its routinely delaying deliveries across mobile and desktop apps. Soo frustrating

@signalapp calling issue on Android. Initially calling someone using an Android device it doesn't ring on other end, just says "calling". only says "ringing" on 2nd attempt. I thought it was a one off issue but happens every time amongst various contacts. Hope you can fix this

@signalapp You need to be really careful when you play with government blocking. People who use it may get in trouble and you can get in deep trouble.

@wallstreetbets @signalapp Doesnt matter if its sus . Signal was created by the people who wanted all the best secrets in one place so they wouldnt have to look too hard to find the people doing the worst secret stuff . Why else would carrier pigeon be endangered and postal service be on its last legs.

Is @signalapp having server issues again? Takes about 1-2 minutes to send a message and another minute or two to actually deliver it...

(9/14) This is bad for everyone, because it makes a working proxy hard to find, a proxy that is working now, might not work tomorrow, and the side effect is loss of quality of service from the users standpoint, which makes @signalapp look bad

@aussielunix @signalapp I have seen some are moving to Signal but I don’t see much big of an issue to stay with Telegram. I could always start a secret chat there.

The constant stream of new people from my contacts joining @telegram and @signalapp suggests that @WhatsApp's dominance might really be in serious trouble. Which is fan-bloody-tastic!

@signalapp I've got a Signal proxy running on a home service. Is there any way I can make this useable to a reasonable number of people needing my broadband as a proxy for their communications?

@elonmusk can Starlink create a JV with @signalapp to create a satellite phone app that allows us to get rid of expensive and shitty cell phone service that we have here in Canada and in most of the world? 5B cell phones x $10/month. Seafarers especially would love you.

@SubstratumNet does your decentralized VPN actually work? If so, it could be an ideal solution for @signalapp’s censorship problems.

@signalapp followed the steps in your blog guide to setup a proxy, but got some errors running the script; any way to check if the proxy works before I start sharing my url?

@signalapp It seems that the docker image doesn't support ARM architecture right? I was trying to set up the proxy server on a raspberrypi and failed with error "standard_init_linux.go:219: exec user process caused: exec format error"

@signalapp I am having problems signing up. The one off code isn’t being received and when I’ve requested a call it just goes back to the screen to put in my one off code that I don’t receive! Help please! I’m trying to set this up for my mother.

Hey @signalapp, any chance you're working on an "import conversation from WhatsApp" feature? It looks like Telegram already has this and it would be a fantastic tool to help convince people to migrate!

@signalapp uhmmm, why did you guys remove the issue page on github for the proxy? there were already a couple issues opened with valid points and questions. Or is it just temporary?

@tmhanssonit @signalapp @WhatsApp Hmm, any vpn by default on the wifi network. If not then surely there is an issue from Signal side. Can you try to open an issue on github?

.@AskPlayStation why do companies like @signalapp adapt to new users at scale and have a single day of issues, but a powerhouse like you can't make game downloads better than a crawl? I get 170MB on everything else but 10MB on PSN downloads! What gives?!?
