  @signalapp please fix the attachment limitation on desktop clients. I don't like having to use WhatsApp just to send multiple files to a contact.

  @JackRhysider @signalapp Same as the API.WhatsAp is evrywhere bc Meta sells the Business API. eats the spam/abuse problem with a massive trust & safety org.Signal is 50 ppl at a nonprofit. Doctor-and-shop messaging means becoming a spam cop and a subpoena magnet. It's the the design, not a lack of will.

  And now @RadarChat brings that same freedom to Signal replacing what is wrong with hile keeping what is good. Is it too much to ask @vikrantnyc to fix @signalapp 's backup problem? (n/n)

  @signalapp Hey, signal is not working in India. The website shows no outage, can you look into it?

  @signalapp When creating a new account on a different phone, the verification code does not arrive. I don't know why. Please solve this problem.

  @signalapp why is Face ID so slow only on signal? Whyyyy? I beg of you to fix it. It’s death by a thousand unlocks. It’s a tiny torture that slowly sends me into madness each day. Please of the love of all that’s secure and private, fix it.

  @agaefendi_ @signalapp It's amazing that you've reported the CSAM. But what I am telling you is that if they create a privacy service where you can save your pictures or other days that you want to stay private nothing is stopping them from doing the same thing they are doing now. We need to act now

  @signalapp usernames help, but spam control gets harder when phone numbers stop anchoring identity

  @signalapp please fix it!

  Tee Time (@topicswithatee) reported 31 minutes ago

  @signalapp Im reading a lot of abuse and a lot of "tech Lord" adoration but very few actual proposals to use the tech itself to stop kids from taking or sharing **** pictures. I suppose some of the repliers above have no issue with young kids having social media apps which the medical 1/2

  @WhatsApp @signalapp @X amongst many others been shut down around us in the UK how is this ok that this is allowed we’re been run out by the one person that promised us the best and is given us hell ! On earth how is this ok ? There’s no humanity there is no clear leader to lead!

  Gurio (@StasisRush) reported 34 minutes ago

  Huh, the @signalapp ended up to be the worst possible connector for an agent bot identity. I didn’t not expect to say it, but here it goes: WhatsApp is a easier to setup if you want a messaging face for your service/platform

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks Why is this Signal's problem? But what Starmer proposed is not a solution. Why don't you come up with something since you care so much. Maybe put all under 18 in a closed environment and monitor their every move, might work

  Durango (@Durango4571) reported 37 minutes ago

  @signalapp Instead of repealing the law that throws people in jail over mean words on the internet, which is clearly ridiculous, they're going to double down? It's like watching 1984 play out in real life.

  @PaulSmithDM @signalapp I thought "crap parents are so terrified of" might have been a clue that I agree with you completely. The missing tone of voice makes it harder though. I regard this "ooh the kiddies" as utterly despicable. The problem now is to find a party that won't do it.

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks "we need to shoot all dogs to safeguard children from dog attacks" - that's stupid it won't help "What do you suggest then????" This is you. Wanna shoot all dogs?

  @carolecadwalla @signalapp likewise locking down childrens devices and web access is the job of parents

  Shady Attia (@AttiaFX) reported 44 minutes ago

  @signalapp @signalapp please keep pushing against government dystopia in the UK and EU. Please keep informing the public of harmful policy decisions from government like this. Please pull your services from any dystopian jurisdiction to help shed light on the issue Please do not capitulate

  JohnSalmondOz (@OzSalmond) reported 44 minutes ago

  @carolecadwalla @signalapp Musk is a problem that needs to be dealt with entirely separately from protecting children from material our society has decided to bar them from. Musk and his like are a separate problem we MUST deal with anyhow. Using them as an excuse to avoid helping kids is absurd

  @signalapp I’m waiting on a verification code that never comes. Any help?

  John (@johnspaetzel) reported 49 minutes ago

  @signalapp And I didn't realize before this that signal had a backup service. So that's $2/mo ad-infinitum

  @VusiThembekwayo @signalapp @telegram This will not help anyone. If one needs a secure way of communicating, one needs a self hosted option

  @femalepencil Because it’s owned by @Meta which is a terrible company - try @signalapp

  Z (@N2K4A8) reported 50 minutes ago

  @enteio its great to see to companies being honest, i dont think they had any strong encryption in the first place but its sad that everything out there have some issues like slow speed, ui/ux bugs, no proper business model, etc except for @signalapp , but needs number to signup

• 
  BrendanEich (@BrendanEich) reported 50 minutes ago

  Signal keeps nagging to enable push notifications, with no way to stop the nags. User-hostile not user-first, and now shown to be insecure. Please fix both bugs: allow nag-stopping, an easy fix; and (if you can) avoid insecure iOS-layer push notification database, @signalapp!

  @Pandora_Delaney @MichaelAlleged @signalapp I know a few Signal devs you can ****.. but I don't think it will fix this issue... Might still be fun though.

  anticensor (@blankanticensor) reported 54 minutes ago

  @StefanBrindusa @daily_romania @signalapp I dunno if you just didn’t listen well, or if you don’t understand the issue. Those vulnerabilities were open-source algorithms!

  Apple kind of fixed the @signalapp notification cache issue. Admitted a notification log issue, yet the iOS apps still require deleting to remove cache.

  @FreedomofPress @signalapp It's very odd that you don't help promote apps that are even more secure than Signal like @SimpleXChat why is that?

  @signalapp Can you please fix the erratic behavior of Signal when registering with a +234 number? pleaseee
