@signalapp hey I just got a new phone and I tried to register using the same number. For some reason it tells me I had too many attempts. I waited for over an hour but still say the same. Help.

@whatsabschalten @Yakima_Dan @signalapp Are you ******* retarded? Tag SMS threads as SMS. Tag encrypted threads as encrypted, problem solved. Without SMS Signal will not exist in 2 years.

@signalapp Could we have an option that when we delete a message on one device it deletes it on all the devices? It's not just a pain in the *** to do it manually, it's also a security issue sometimes. I don't want my child's picture to appear and stay on my work laptop for example.

@signalapp In a sorru state of affairs, if you actually stopped begging and let users donate by themselves, you can really get a huge amount to cover costs. I'm trying to donate via app since a few days and every single time I get an error that payment couldn't be completed. Fix it.

still kinda ****** up that @signalapp is so focused on the technical end of private comms, yet insists on "securely" uploading your contacts list in order to notify everyone who's got you in their own list that you made an account as if that's somehow not a massive privacy issue

@signalapp Please don't drop SMS support. This is a terrible idea. What's a worse UX: encrypted and plain text in the same app, or having to deal with two apps to manage all of your messages? The latter by a long way.

@andymstone @signalapp Hmm, who should I trust? Signal, a company trusted by many to operate a secure and private service that has proven itself over time, or a company with a history of manipulating it's users with an invested interest in targeted advertising?

@irae @signalapp I agree and disagree… problem with Signal in the context of disappearing messages is one can easily loose track of message so many (including myself) take screenshots which is a horrible idea. Remind me in n minutes/hours could solve that problem… but there are trade-offs.

@signalapp I'd feel more COMFORTABLE, if you fix the "cancel" button for voicenotes, it's too big and easily engaged, throwing away a whole *** vn👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀 DO... YOU.... USE..... YOUR...OWN....PRODUCT?

(@ProperPostulate) reported
@signalapp I don't want to donate to an app that is trying to replicate social media with things like stories. I want to support secure messaging, and removing sms is a step in the wrong direction for improving adoption. If you made your roadmap public, it would help to justify a donation

@signalapp Also, what you call "putting it out there" is us sharing how ads on our service work. This is not a new page, nor is it new information. For example, we launched the "Why Am I Seeing This" ad tool in 2014.

@signalapp Great going, now please provide the basic service, like video call without lag and voice call without being choppy.

@MatthewRStover @ThreemaApp @signalapp For me, that's not a problem. I'm using those apps with my family/friends/colleagues, who have my phone number anyway. For me, that's not that secret.

Why is @signalapp adding “stories”. Maybe I’m not their core desires user… but a high performing encrypted direct and group messaging app that is easy to use is the purpose. No social media desired. If they are doing it to layer in ads… trust in the service will declined imo.

@signalapp I want to know how you're preserving our privacy by utilizing 3rd party service like Google's reCaptcha? Also when usernames instead of phone number?

@M0__o__ @signalapp Signal isn't the most feature rich IM client, but it is *by far* the most privacy preserving. Its only real problem on the privacy front is requiring phone number for account creation. They go to great lengths to use it privately, but it always has made me uncomfortable.

@signalapp having network issues with groups? I receive messages in groups if on my laptop but they aren't delivered on my mobile. Started about 12 hours ago.

@bblboy54 @signalapp Having a separate SMS app is going to be an American Android problem. On the iOS side, you have to install Signal anyway since iMessage to Signal is always SMS.

@signalapp I wish this was not the case. I have been using signal primarily since 2015. I love that it was simple and I have been an avid recruiter. I think this move is too soon and will slow down recruiting efforts.
