    @RealGlenMerlin @signalapp There is problem with the server .

  • realwillkenzie William Kenzie (@realwillkenzie) reported

    @contraVers @startpage @signalapp There is a fundamental issue with Signal - if your signal phone number gets leaked, anyone can message you. If I were them, I'd add a Message Request feature that just moves previously unaccepted From numbers to a different space. Kind of like Spam.

  • m_arcopolo marco paşa (@m_arcopolo) reported

    @signalapp Voice and video calling is very bad, sound echoes, image freezes, do you think to fix it? 😔😔

  • NerdyNeutrino 🐿️ (@NerdyNeutrino) reported

    I downloaded @signalapp today at around 21:45 today and then Whatsapp was down. Spooky stuff. #WhatsAppDown #instagramdown

  • realwillkenzie William Kenzie (@realwillkenzie) reported

    @Mrks99 @otsolax @signalapp Signal did it poorly. Your article you listed has one source, which has this information. Also, the source your linked article used says nothing about a backdoor, but rather the encryption being "broken" (but not really) The source says if you encrypt the android phone, solved

  • hindu_in_wb ⬛ 🟧 (@hindu_in_wb) reported

    @signalapp Instead of tweeting start working on the cross-platform message sync issue. I had to stop using Signal within a week because 100 messages I sent from the desktop app tool 1 hour to sync on the android app.

  • Mizna_R Mizna (@Mizna_R) reported

    Insta down n insta friends having meltdown..then WhatsApp is down ..🤭 🐦 + @signalapp = ⭐

  • JR_Invinity88 جاكسون رانتيسالو 8 (@JR_Invinity88) reported

  • RasyonelAnaliz Rasyonel Analiz ☪︎ (@RasyonelAnaliz) reported

    @signalapp Pictures sent from the desktop are not visible on the mobile device. Can you please fix this problem? @signalapp

  • bhuelsman04 bhuelsman (@bhuelsman04) reported

    @signalapp Lots of careers though wish for weekend down time. Not really a "tech industry" only thing.

  • Poisson_thought Bafu chafu 🕳 (@Poisson_thought) reported

    @signalapp Do you get the irony of WhatsApp be down, it's too late anyway

  • RajeshK50329734 Rajesh Kumar Sarkar (@RajeshK50329734) reported

    @signalapp There is a problem with your apps video calling, video call is not done properly. Sometimes the picture is seen and never seen again. Take steps to fix this problem.

  • sjpalladium85 Shubham Jaiswal (@sjpalladium85) reported

    The real fun is not when WhatsApp/Insta/FB goes down, it’s when Google is down 🤓 half the world will reach to less than 5% productivity. So, embrace the alternatives we have and give them a chance @signalapp , @bing , @DuckDuckGo etc. last but not least #kooapp. #instagramdown

  • realwillkenzie William Kenzie (@realwillkenzie) reported

    @Mrks99 @otsolax @signalapp This isn't an actual backdoor, this is an error in security. The linked articles talk about how the key was found in a file in the shared cache on the device... that doesn't make it a backdoor, that's how security keys are stored for chat apps, it just so happens

  • ConorEForde Concobhar Ó Fuartháin (@ConorEForde) reported

    @boomchange1234 @signalapp That's not an ambulance service, that's a taxi with notions. Ambulances have SLAs with providers for guaranteed uptime rules and specific infranstructure to meet those requirements. This is like a hospital having a bunch of party balloons as their "Oxygen supply".
