@iateyourmic @AielloBrady @signalapp This might be a stupid question, but does Compose help with this problem by having the runtime embedded in the APK instead of using the system UI?

@signalapp I manage a large Signal group and many users are experiencing repeated Captcha verification requests. Is this a known issue?

@benadida @WhatsApp @signalapp The issues here are not about the comm. channel, but about where the data is stored afterwards. Hospitals are severely understaffed or have low priority in their budgets for IT sec. As usual, telemedicine is not a problem of the tech, but how people would use or ABUSE the data.

Hey @signalapp I read there could be a URI spoofing flaw. What are you doing to fix it?

@hacks4pancakes @signalapp Long time Signal user and advocate here; yeah I agree it's a problem. I propose they set up an ignore tag that can remove individual entries from contacts during sync, and simultaneously hide your own number from that same contact. I'm not an experienced coder though.

@ghazalairshad @signalapp You don't have to hold down in signal you just move the indicator where you want it to play. You can go out of the app and it's still playing.

@signalapp The app has been crashing on my iPhone XS immediately on startup for days now after updating! I sent my crash log to your support email but it seems lots of people are having this issue. I myself have experienced this twice now. Will this be a reoccurring issue? 😓

@caiovmf @AielloBrady @signalapp In the particular instance I mentioned it's implemented with OCR so that wouldn't help

@runasand @signalapp The real issue is the converse though and I don’t think you can turn that off.

@eyefnwin_RG @signalapp I don't see a problem here, because via DM I was just asked to use the support function within the app, which I did. And regarding the push notifications: as I understand it, they are already working on this problem. I personally hope for a solution in one of the next versions.

@signalapp Note: I understand there is a setting to disable the notification, but it's enabled by default and it only disables incoming, not outgoing. Doesn't solve the privacy issue either way.

@hacks4pancakes @signalapp I respectfully disagree that notifications are a privacy issue because you can see all of your contacts in the app anyway. However, if you said linking signal to a phone number is a privacy issue I would agree 100%.

@drwolfff @hacks4pancakes @signalapp The privacy issue might be the information that you use the app at all, not just that it's aware of your contact list.

@JeremyRubin @signalapp @moxie Snapchat has a similar issue. Some of my friends have asked why I fall out of contact with them and don't engage as much and it's because their face disappears below the fold and I don't scroll down unless I need that person. It's my lazy version of the Myspace Top 8.

@signalapp Since yesterday, I can’t use Signal on my iPhone 13 Pro anymore. Every time I open the app it automatically closes after some seconds. Furthermore, I can’t receive new messages. On my Mac app, however, everything works. Restarted all devices already. Pls help 🙏

@AlecMuffett @signalapp Yes XMPP's spam problems are more manageable because it's not all that popular, and it would probably be better for everyone if big commercial services didn't fully open. But XMPP does show that it's certainly possible to add new features to a federated system.

@deoan_thall @hacks4pancakes @signalapp Overall to block and delete a conversation, that saves 3 clicks, from 9 down to 6. So that's helpful, thank you - no idea you could click on the profile pic to select a block that way. Still... block and delete from there would be a nice option, confirm both in one click.

@mostly_bsd @signalapp @FreeBSDHelp That specific config doesn’t (they are for in jail port bulding commands). I don’t know how far you can get for poudriere root. At least jail creation needs root, but I’ve never tried. See how far you get? Also you can jail poudriere, which might help?

You know one problem with the internet? Too many tech bros. Only tech bros can find it acceptable that gay men are bombarded with female porn bots on @instagram and similar engagement platforms. @signalapp is now becoming a sewer for this too.
