@signalapp My signal app is down... what do I do? I don't want to lose everything if I uninstall and reload. Please advise.

@JeromySonne @signalapp @Kantrowitz Indeed. They can shoot down doubt of this being perceived as a PR Stunt with those.

@signalapp I would like to move my friend groups over to signal, however, most of them have turkey(+90) phone numbers, and they never received the code to validate their numbers. I believe this is a known problem, is there a general timberline for when this is getting fixed? Thx

@cillic @signalapp Did they fix the “notify everyone you joined” bug yet?

@signalapp has recently gained a flood of new users after Facebook-owned WhatsApp announced new terms of service that would allow it to share user profile data with Facebook in some circumstances. The new terms are due to take effect on May 15.

@_mihirmishr @Akshay_Pathak1 @signalapp The problem is always going to be about adoption when it comes to alternative social networks.

@signalapp You're not clear on how they closed down the account. Did they accuse you of violating terms ? Was it an arbitrary decision on their part ? Did they give reasons anyway ?

@signalapp The only thing I don’t get is signal isn’t a replacement for FB. So it makes me freaked out but how does texting with a private app help?

@followingstaars @disclosetv @signalapp It’s not private in my mind…it’s massive and all encompassing and it is publicly traded. Corporations can not be omnipotent in the name of “private”…they are not. Being part of an #oligopoly is still an #antitrust issue.

@rani_yachts @disclosetv @signalapp Which is why the government funded it through “private” venture capital firms. If I’m not mistaken the army has developed something like Facebook, but shut it down as Facebook was being launched i.e. the testing phase was complete.

@signalapp They shut your account down because you're Signal and did those things, not because you did those things.

@signalapp Please fix message delivery for existing users first, along with phone call quality and experience.

Tallulah van der Made
(@tallulahlucy) reported
@signalapp Your ad account was shut down because a number of the words you used in the pics were recognised as breaking the community standards and a large number of ads were disapproved at the same time. They weren't ever seen by a human. If you appealed you'd prob be reinstated.

(@JeromySonne) reported
@signalapp @martyswant Again if that's the case show us the actual rejected ads. These screenshots are functionally meaningless as an account suspension can happen for loads of reasons and you 100% have the ability to drill down to the ad level and show the individually rejected creative.

(@RaveAlution) reported
@iPlunks @signalapp The pin part is optional, although the reminder is a bit intrusive, but is only there to help users not forget, which I'm sure they would without this feature, unless you use the same pin for everything, or write them down (in case you didn't know these are security risks).

@Akshay_Pathak1 @signalapp Without ads these businesses die eventually. May be premium services or crowd funding might help

@WolfieChristl @signalapp @moxie It is sad. However, I went through the pain of securing funding for an open source project. It took a decade for our investments to start paying back. OSS development funding is still a question without a clear answer, leading to problems like this one.

@signalapp Hi, I contacted your tech team on 18/4 about an issue with making a backup of Signal on my old phone. Have only received an automated reply. Please can you ask them to respond.

(@Brooks_Lawson1) reported
@signalapp @martyswant I have no doubt they did but it seems Facebook will regularly shut down accounts seemingly at random and without explanation. You may have triggered some sort of automatic flag or something. They'll also restore said accounts if you protest the decision, also without explanation.

@disclosetv @signalapp So they shut down the truth? Imagine my shock. 😱

@signalapp @Linuzifer It would be a shame if there was a tool where everyone could easily sign up and spend a few bucks with their own account, so that Ad companies would need to shut down many different accounts…

@Justintimeswag @Web3Coach @signalapp It's a massive problem if you have an online business. A source of significant mental discomfort is that I feel I have to keep the Instagram app so customers can reach me.

@signalapp The problem isn't that the picture of what's happening is hazy and opaque, the problem is that the vast majority of people simply don't care their data is being collected.

@signalapp but please try firstly to solve the bug on syncing from signal mobile and signal pc there is an error with does not sync or there was no internet.

Session
(@session_app) reported
@shanan2463 @signalapp We have received extensive legal advice on this issue with relation to the relevant legislation (the 'Assistance and Access bill'). It would be illegal for us to be compelled to build a backdoor, and Session runs on the #OxenNetwork (FKA Loki Network) which is decentralised.

@signalapp @Kantrowitz 1/2: These screenshots are from early March, when the ad account was briefly disabled for a few days due to an unrelated payments issue.
