    @signalapp Signal should reach colleges and universities. If these platforms help them then many students will use Signal app for education purpose and by that students also can do day today work on signal.

    @signalapp You might have issues with sending verification codes/calls to Malta (+356). Neither myself, my wife, or our colleagues on different mobile providers are able to receive verification codes/calls, so we cannot register😢 Any help would be great!

  • JameHealy Jame Healy, CMC (@JameHealy) reported

    @signalapp curious if the Windows 10 app will have a "minimize to taskbar" feature or otherwise run in the background as a service so the app doesn't need to be in the foreground?

  • RaghhavSammrat Raghhav Sammrat (@RaghhavSammrat) reported

    @kuoirad @signalapp Do you have an article that can explain the IME issue?

  • mrteefers Mr Teefers (@mrteefers) reported

    @signalapp You have ability to assign music files/ringtones to calls, but not text messages? We use Whatsapp for 24x7 on-call and need to know when a text comes in. The array of "blip" noises doesn't cut it. Being down last Friday/Saturday undermines your credibility..

  • lrvick Lance R. Vick ( @lrvick@mastodon.social ) (@lrvick) reported

    @signalapp Signal values privacy? 1. They hold the only app keys that protect all user messages 2. Metadata encryption keys stored in broken SGX enclaves they could dump 3. They force all IP metadata to one stack they control. 4. They don't allow distribution on open source app stores

  • jdlee77 Jon Lee (@jdlee77) reported

    @signalapp Is there still known issues with sending images? I continue to get send failure notifications.
