    @NivalCat @BrendanEich @signalapp I find it a bigger problem that they still require a phone to run. Cannot install on a PC (Signal Desktop still requires a phone to be running and proxy messages to it).

    @signalapp Why am I unable to complete the set up of Signal on my new Android OnePlus 15 phone? No promised verification code to my number ever comes. I deleted my Signal account on my iPhone 11 Pro Max, reinstalled Signal on my new phone all to no avail. Any help?

    @signalapp is the app down or something, things were fine for days now me messages take forever to go through, but even when they become two circles with a checkmark they never fill anymore and I get no responses???

    @DrewHyatt8 @signalapp No way… The NSA would not have something this secure the algorithm cannot be broken no matter what… the guy who invented this form of encryption decided to make signal a foundation nonprofit… because it was better for the greater good of humanity than privatizing it… that’s how special it is And you know it’s true when entire governments can’t break the code… the only way they can get signals is by screenshots, but actually deciphering the encryption code. Nope, impossible for many reasons not even the NSA.

    @bdmurdock @signalapp It does. As a security guy, I don't mind a few seconds to secure. I have however seen people putting in a lot of effort to get round our controls at work, for ease of use. I'll always try and have a chat and see what the actual issue is, and if we can do something.

    @CisoDiagonal @signalapp Don‘t think so, had that problem a year ago every time I wanted to use signal. Just ignored it and now we here

  • swenlei56
    swenlei (@swenlei56) reported

    @dedelaugesen @signalapp no that's the app trying to help you remember your pin through spaced repetition. if that gets annoying pretty sure you could turn it off in settings the recent phishing campaigns are different to what you mention

    @signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

  • RUL_FE

    @signalapp Please fix the group bug. After I remove some accounts that have already been deactivated from the group, the group member count does not change and does not reflect the actual number of members.

    @TLDInvestors @signalapp Yup, sad to see but hopefully I can help some people avoid this fate

    @FiliusGrok @signalapp @WhiteHouse It's not the tech, it's user error, as it has been in every other situation where a story like this drops.

    @nyakojiru @mer__edith @signalapp 6. **Mandatory IP protection**: Built-in Tor (or equivalent) for every connection, non-disableable. This would severely degrade the service. Just use a VPN.

    anyone having issues with @signalapp ?

    @signalapp Terrible time to associate your great app with Bill Gate's Microsoft.

    @lightcoin @signalapp @sms4sats Tried it. I paid for several phone numbers and at some point decided "I don't want to keep paying for a new phone number every time I want to sign up for a service." If they really care about your privacy maybe start by not asking us to dox ourselves in the first place

    @naomibrockwell @signalapp Signal really is a problem fronting features. Even if your an experience computer user with some experience securing things, it’s often not obvious what to do or where to go.

    @Shahinlooo Millions of Iranians cannot contact their families or receive emergency alerts.The Islamic Republic regime of the mullahs has shut down the internet inside Iran to prevent the voice of truth of the Iranian people from reaching the world. @Cloudflare @Signalapp

    @theonejvo @signalapp What was the fix? Sounded like an exposed control plane gave everyone access which seems somewhat intended?
