@naomibrockwell @signalapp Would signal really help in this case? It's still a centralized walled garden subject to law enforcement. What prevent Signal to provide medata data such as user IP? Any centralized service is a liability.

— Is anyone else experiencing problems with #Signal after updating to the latest version of @SignalApp on an iPhone? Sending messages no longer works, and my contacts are disappearing after messages fail to send. I restarted, deleted, and re-installed, but nothing seems to #help.

Hey @signalapp, I'm currently in Egypt and trying to setup Signal on a new iPhone 12 iOS 14.7.1 and keep getting "Invalid response from service" when entering my number. Troubleshooting etc. didn't help, neither did a VPN. Any suggestions?

@signalapp @ghc Today is the second day and @signalapp is not working despite the many times we sent emails and messages to Signal Support without getting any reply from them! Is that the way you treat customers who supported you and donated to your business!

@ssunderaswara @signalapp ha ha! The problem is that many of my international partners do not have Signal. And when they want to forward some important videos, they still struggle. Reaching me is never a problem, but it's just the ease for them. But, yes, still thinking :)

@ChasTaylor @signalapp There seems to be an apex with social apps where when "everyone and their mam" just uses it, and that becomes the reason to continue using the service. WhatsApp groups absolutely tether their users to the app.

@dysinger @signalapp Supposedly there is an encrypted sender, and they dump the log asap. And at the current state seems pretty solid. My worry is what pressures may be applied. (legal or otherwise) Big Q: is there a proto that completely blinds S->R association from the service?

.@MojaveFoneBooth @signalapp IRC is down (has been for a week or so) due to a change on Signal's side requiring UUID to send now which our current library that we're using doesn't support. As soon as it's updated we'll be back. @WhatsApp can be used as an alternative.

@OnosumeKatsudou @theshillito @signalapp It's not an SMS app though? It goes over the internet, it doesn't use the phone network. The issue is that as far as I could tell it ties one name to one phone number. As someone who goes by different names in different contexts, that wasn't acceptable.

@lattera @signalapp I had to 🔒 signal in memory (in task manager), turn off power management for signal, enable automatic startup of signal to resolve the issue.

@mneylon @markstanley @signalapp I think you're both correct. I think there's a spin going on in conjunction with somebody that has a terrible grasp of basic technology.

— @SignalApp: After updating to version 5.19.0, Signal has lost all functionality on my iPhone SE. As a long time privacy-advocate who recently convinced two friends to start using Signal, I feel terribly embarrassed that I am now sending them SMS texts. Please #help!
