@Seliene_ @signalapp No but the problem is, we can't set up any doodle art work bt I don't have any problem with that, but bcz of this mostly people don't stick it 4 long 4 theme reason, It should be balanced, n in many phones the msg don't gets delivered sometimes until they don't open Signal app.

@MonetaryFrame @signalapp Moving to better environments can help also. Like me expatriating from Australia. It's only a little better here but I gained massive opportunity to work compared to back here. Australia government enforces extreme conformity and demands submission. I just couldn't do it.

@tcely @_LifeWithMell @signalapp This ain’t an Apple problem though.iMessage is the top messaging service for Americans. Google wants Apple to fix their problems for them.

Public service message to all dissidents of the regime: change you online habits! There are many services you can use to increase opsec: @ProtonMail (email / calendar / file sharing) and @signalapp (messaging) to start. @cryptpad for documentation collaboration. Use VPN too.

@BurnerWah @RealGlenMerlin @signalapp fair, but also to be fair telegram secret chats aren't really broken security-wise either. so it's kinda just meh, it'll be fine either way more than likely

Meta is an awful company, but they were complying with a search warrant. The problem is they collect this data in the first place. Messaging services need to be designed to minimize data. You can't hand over data you don't have. @signalapp excels at this.

@Seliene_ @signalapp Yep, checked. Thanks for trying to help though. The messages do send, but only after I sent a second to the same person.

@jova043 @_LifeWithMell @signalapp It's a problem Apple chose to create and a problem Apple continues choosing to sustain. If it is a problem for Apple or not, isn't relevant. Google wants Apple to implement the upgrade to SMS/MMS. Apple refusing to do so is the same as if they only supported 2G phone calls.

Hey @signalapp Received a Message that my support subscription is canceled because I didn't use Signal enough for the last periode. Now I can't subscribe again. Error processing Payment. It doesn't matter if I do not use Signal that much. I decided to support the product

@signalapp often when I send a message I see one circle and it doesn’t send, then if I later send a second, both are then delivered (2 circles). It happens too often to be random network issues. Any idea?

@SnazzyQ @MKBHD Using @signalapp solves all the problems no need for RCS. I am pretty sure google will lose interest in supporting after a while. Not to forget the number of apps they created and shutdown

@_LifeWithMell Why should everyone else buy an Apple device to solve a problem Apple created? You should download and use the free @signalapp instead.

@signalapp unable to send a specific gif from google keyboard. Not able to recieve the same. What should be the issue? The same gifs works perfectly everywhere else for sending and receiving.

@PatrickDattilio @signalapp Still requires a phone number for sign up, though you could always use a service like twilio or Google voice to get a phone number that isn't your normal day to day one, if it's a problem.

@tcely @_LifeWithMell @signalapp Google has no say in how Apple runs their business. And it being a problem for Apple or not is relevant. Apple is literally gonna go on not caring what Google wants. Maybe they should run their business better and not half *** messaging on Android

@ProtonPrivacy I wonder if you may consider merging with, buying or creating your own version of @signalapp. You both have great products which put privacy first and since Proton is building out it’s Privacy Ecosystem, having a high quality app like signal would help with that.

@Seliene_ @signalapp Hmm but that was not the issue it was my elder sister (married) phone and I enabled all notifications removed battery optimisation but sometimes it doesn't work actually and same problem with many other models.

@ayemikey86 @motherboard Not all messaging services — had they used 1 that offers end-to-end encryption & doesn't keep a copy of the decryption key (like @signalapp), the messaging service wouldn't have had anything useful to hand over. (I think Meta's own WhatsApp offers end-to-end encryption now, too.)

(4) TODAY is a great time to start using only messaging services that support end to end encryption & *setting auto delete up* because if an "end" (i.e. your phone or someone else's) is intercepted before deletion, E2EE won't help much I recommend: @signalapp @WhatsApp @telegram

@dalast1woke @HarpSilver @signalapp Its that line "its time for apple ti fix texting" no Google no its not. Its time for you to get your act together and in fairness they really are making a big effort but it's come VERY late in the game.

@DJVsha @christitustech Just dumb down your smartphone. Uninstall anything you can. Install only foss, tracker-free apps. If you go dumb as nokia, then strip your phone all the way and just install @signalapp (it can send sms as well for those contacts that don't have signal)+ vpn. You'll be better off.

@bhcarpenter @signalapp Don't put anything in writing if you're unsure what app/tech to use. Even though we all hate phone calls, this is probably the safest bet (minus the obvious single-party/two-party recording consent issues, but that's unrelated). Note: No voicemails.
