Stephen Gary (@missyNelso69913) reported@signalapp Rule of the internet: If someone asks for your verification code, they’re trying to steal your account. No legit service will ever ask for it. Stay sharp.

-
Susu Kental Asin (@TemenkuDisunat) reported@VictoriaCFontan @signalapp Social Engineering exists because USERS are the weakest point in security. Fix the users, fix yourself.
-
青い夜の記憶 (@XBMXYW) reported@signalapp When will Google and Apple's passkey login be supported? Both telegram and wechat next door have been supported, and it comes from the loyal appeal of an advanced user who supports signal software development every month.
-
Saman (@Saman3862379687) reported@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
-
David J. Nemeth 🇺🇸 (@davidjnemeth) reported@signalapp new Signal Desktop 7.88.0 on windows is having issues - won't send - reinstall fixes for a minute, then dies
-
Bryan Murdock (@bdmurdock) reported@Gold_Phishy @signalapp Unfortunately registration lock is not on by default. Probably because people have a hard time remembering their PIN, and Signal doesn't want you writing it down
-
RUL (@RUL_FE) reported@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.
-
jonf3n (@jonf3n) reported@NetAskari @signalapp Are the servers down?
-
Divesh Kumar (@diveshkumar786) reportedWhatsapp disappearing messages has been around since so long and still they can’t fix this issue since starting. Never encountered such irritating issues with @signalapp even though they have less resources because of being a non profit organisation. @WhatsApp @Meta Are you just lazy or such issues aren’t your priority? I seriously don’t want to doubt your abilities.
-
Kata Saya (@Tree_0flife) reported@manasiwibi @signalapp Yes. It's still a problem. Hallo? Can you fix it signal?
-
LianZaKim @Kim (@liankimpi) reported@signalapp Please a proxy to be able to login
-
_am___❤️ (@__am_________) reported@signalapp Need #signalproxy pls help
-
Avieshek (@Avieshek) reported@SIGNAL_RETURN Why doesn’t @signalapp launch an email service?
-
Mikko Rantalainen (@mtrantalainen) reported@Elminster04 @signalapp Yes, but you shouldn't give any extra credit for perfect grammar either. ChatGPT et al can fix grammar of any phishing message if scammers just bothered to do that. Currently bad grammar works as a filter to continue phishing attack with the most gullible victims only.
-
Not here, nor there! (@0to80Eventually) reported@signalapp Terrible time to associate your great app with Bill Gate's Microsoft.
-
CKR (@CKRSandra) reported@signalapp I thought I was contacting signal support and I was I text sometimes they do as for the signal pin. Now they ask for donations. Please Check my account and see how you can help me.
-
S.A.P (@SAP127001) reportedWhy you should really think about using mainstream messengers like @signalapp Stop linking your mob number to your metadata. No phone number, no problem; @session_app and @SimpleXChat don’t have these issues.
-
Steve Barnes (@realstevebarnes) reported@camhigby @signalapp needs to take this channel down and block the comms in the interest of public safety.
-
Sooraj (@iAnonymous3000) reportedI use and recommend @signalapp - solid choice. But Signal still requires a phone number, which I don’t like. @SimpleXChat needs nothing. Signal’s infrastructure is also centralized, meaning one entity controls the network. SimpleX doesn’t have that problem. I would also add verifiability as a criteria. As independent researchers, we shouldn’t take privacy claims at face value. Open source code, reproducible builds, and third-party audit reports are the minimum. If you can’t verify it, you can’t trust it.
