    @signalapp When a messaging app is down or experiencing problems, its time to switch. this was the last straw, first you dont deliver messages, then you miss messages completely, not it doesnt even work.

    @signalapp I appreciate all the work on Signal app, but why in the world is there not an option to default to SMS when there's an outage like right now? It's very inconvenient not being able to send messages to someone else on signal.
