@kavinbm @telegram @signalapp Despite all the efforts been made by indian Companies they always endup shutting down. The fact that indians always prefer western life style and Indians always go for western companies. But the fact is they have Indian IT Employees and tech Legends and they pay them well.

@signalapp if it's still being worked on, why was the banner taken down in the app? Wouldn't it still apply?

I think the @signalapp disruption is the only free service one that hasn't upset me because I know I've paid them truly nothing. No money and no data for them to sell. Other "free" services make money on me other ways so I expect more uptime.

@aultered @PunkRocker77 @signalapp Or maybe fixing scaling issues with a sudden influx of users isn't as simple or instant as throwing out a few product names and keywords.

@signalapp Why is it taking so long? It shouldn't take multiple days to add more servers unless its a code issue maybe?

@AJYWan @signalapp When my favorite messenger app has some scaling issues because they go from 10m to 50m in a single day, then that's not a debacle, it's teething troubles.

@signalapp @signalapp For those still having issues, try uninstalling and then reinstalling the app. That has solved a lot of connectivity and message issues in group chats that I am in.

@squirrelly1357 @signalapp @MarkDiStef Millions and millions of users joined within just days, what do you expect? If let's say Parler suddenly had every Twitter user on their platform, they would also be down. This is basic IT stuff.

@realJessePeden @signalapp My belief is that not everyone had the banner taken down. Odds are good they scaled as fast as they could in the markets they were already strong in, but there are probably whole AWS facilities they need to turn up a presence in that they didn't have anything.

This is probably a given, but while @signalapp is working to fully restore reliable service for all users, maybe refrain from sending media such a photos and videos to your contacts for the time being. If everyone did this, imagine all the freed up bandwidth for text.
