@dhirenmotilal @signalapp This is not a problem in providing data to get service, the problem is when it is taken from you without your knowledge, is shared with other, you can't delete it, you can't opt out, system is socially designed to mine data and feed you with information you didn't asked for.

@dgkimpton @signalapp I think I've gotten all we'll get- a bundled Open Source keyboard would be nice, but I don't see it happening given Moxie's attitude so far. But in-app disclosure is just enough to help mitigate some of the worst outcomes. Shame they had to be so difficult about it.

@signalapp ...I've mentioned that Signal started to use the reCaptcha to verify if the users are robots. But reCaptcha isn't available in China(Blocked by the Chinese ISPs), which made Chinese users unable to login unless bypassing the ISPs' firewalls.

Dear @signalapp, is there an issue with support on your end? I've had to reinstall Signal on my phone and I'm getting frustrated because the app keeps asking for a pin I never made. I contacted support several times but haven't heard from anyone there. Help please.

Hi @signalapp, pls can you fix the bug with delayed messages on group chats? I am chatting with people on different time zones and I receive their messages 20-24 hours after they have sent it.

The time take for the @signalapp to sync back from the desktop app to the mobile app is glacial. I use it for a few hours on my PC and when I open the app on my phone, it takes forever to download the messages, unlike Whatsapp. If you're in a busy group, heaven help you.

@signalapp Hi, how can I remove a group member who has changed their phone number but the old number is still in the group? This presumably is why such groups are still ‘Legacy’ groups. Help

@DigitalKway @NHSDigital I’m a huge fan of Slack but not sure it’s right for everything. Teams could be great but issues with working across tenancies and local policies. Maybe an NHS version of @signalapp so benefits like WhatsApp but data under NHS control?

.@signalapp in helping users transition to your service, a tiny feature would help. Could you please let know users how many contacts from their address book are on Signal. Thank you for your work for a better messaging future.

@AdamSculthorpe @signalapp @moxie There are two issues here. 1 did the user store the messages on his phone. 2 did they have a court order to install spyware on his phone. This is why we don't need to have encryption back doors.

@signalapp @signalapp I have so much people that have Chinese smartphone Oppo Huawei Xiaomi ecc that don't receive notifications.. Unfortunately some people don't know how to solve these problems even if you explain how to do it. First cause of this problem is battery optimization

@gusmelo @signalapp @moxie Don't you find it odd how much effort is put into criticising pioneering work of a non-profit that is taking up global censorship problems? I think this is all a bit fabricated to put the brakes on the success of signal.

@killing_j0ke @signalapp They won’t help. They’re always in denial. Their app is perfect and the users are lying

@eurorecovery247 @signalapp Its not gonna be fixed because its not an issue... its because signal encrypts the phone calls, so when you get an unencrypted service such as your normal phone calls. It will terminate the encrypted signal to protect your conversation.

@signalapp I’m having problems getting notifications on iOS 14.4. Notifications only pop up when I open Signal. Oddly on iPadOS 14.4 they come through instantly. Is there any way to rectify this?
