    @odogwudev @signalapp You need to be convincing. Evangelize the service and highlight the benefits. 99% of my conversations are there now. Uninstalled Whatsapp on Feb 28 and not looking back.

    @MattBNA @_Jayyyyy______ @signalapp I live in a mostly developed country.I said local ambulance for a reason, there is a of course a telephone based emergency service but they operate in a large area..takes 40mins. The WhatsApp one takes 10mins max and provides automated messages with emergency tips.

  • lolololittlepi1 lolololittlepink (@lolololittlepi1) reported

    @signalapp Fix your ******* photo sending lag and poor video calls!!!

  • chaibapat Chaitanya Bapat (@chaibapat) reported

    @sohamkanade @signalapp As far as service being down as the motivation for migrating, such outages happen with many tech companies once a year or so.. while that's not an excuse for improving service availability, it'll be interesting to see if that outage becomes a tipping point.

  • markus_ottela maqp (@markus_ottela) reported

    @CgGeagea @signalapp Signal works without Google Play Services, you can opt out if you want to. "without some other app--" Signal is the app you'd replace WA with. An outage isn't a pressing reason I agree with you on that. But there's plenty of other reasons, mostly Facebook aggregating metadata.

  • 0xJoey Joey (@0xJoey) reported

    @signalapp Yeah, but it's down in China,

  • mike_w_hk 香港的華萊士 Mike Wallace in HK (@mike_w_hk) reported

    @signalapp Do you have anything to say for the event that your service is blocked in P.R China by the Chinese communist party?

  • Experdiza Observer (@Experdiza) reported

    @acedrew @signalapp yeah what a terrible time to listen to investors and go be part of microsoft. why not, become microsoft over 20 years

  • jdcrunchman John Draper (@jdcrunchman) reported

    @signalapp why cant I use audio or video on iPad ver of Signal. It worked earlier then stopped working. I don’t even see the mic icon anymore. Has anyone else had this problem?

  • Rock1obster Rock Lobster (@Rock1obster) reported

    @signalapp a bunch of us are having issues with Signal. Can't DM or send messages in group chats. Any messages that were sent over a week ago slowly roll in every night. Ex, I just received messages that were sent 5 days ago.

  • alirezaimi alireza (@alirezaimi) reported

    @signalapp I can't login anymore in #iran because i can't receive any sms or call from you ...

  • acedrew Definitely not a musician - My Cat (@acedrew) reported

    @risknc @signalapp Teams would be really good, but cross organization collaboration is broken worse than it was in slack before slack fixed it. I spend way too much time in these platforms.

  • Habibur93694815 Habib (@Habibur93694815) reported

    @signalapp down in Bangladesh. Why?

  • Krunalc16 Krunal (@Krunalc16) reported

    @signalapp down in India or what? Unable to send and receive messages...tried reinstalling but it says my network is out of service...not able to get an otp....plz have a look at it.

  • CgGeagea Geagea Cynthia (@CgGeagea) reported

    @markus_ottela @signalapp You're right, but replacing whatsapp only without some other apps is useless. Even Ggle is accumulating metadata, can we abandon ggle? Dnt think so. But anw my point here was that a 10 mins "outage" is definitely not a reason to switch to Signal.

  • alirezaimi alireza (@alirezaimi) reported

    @signalapp hey signal i can't login or register anymore because there is no sms or calling from you ... #iran

  • goggan Goggan (@goggan) reported

    @liamosaur @signalapp Damn. Quick fix @signalapp please, or we're going to lose the converted back to the hovels of wotsup et al.

  • BofingerDavid David Bofinger (@BofingerDavid) reported

    @IanWoolf @signalapp If there's no report process then have to guess the problem will persist.

  • korikakiyomi SrkV (@korikakiyomi) reported
