    @signalapp Very tough to ask family/friends to switch from whatsapp if app has issues like this.. hoping your backend architecture is highly scalable.. such outages should not happen if we want signal to touch 500 million active users soon!

  • kamey258 Kamey (@kamey258) reported

    @ToucanRoll @vinaysir100 @signalapp literally everything you use online requires an ip the ip address is used so that the service knows where to send the data to, it's like your home address so that the postman can send you mail, and signal doesn't log your ip, if you don't like it use vpn.

  • rez0__ rez0 (@rez0__) reported

    @caseyjohnellis @signalapp It’s been down a lot today :/

  • georgeemreis Strategic Intelligence 🇬🇧🇬🇪🇺🇸 (@georgeemreis) reported

    @itsLIRAN @matt_odell @signalapp the signal is not decentralized at all. if so why users suffering a problem when sending a message now? The answer is clear: your messages pass the Signal's centralized servers 😎

  • saq3 #MissingHugs Shaheeda Abdul Kader (@saq3) reported

    We are having issues using @signalapp on 📱. Often photos, videos, even plain texts will give a “failed to send” message. Most times videos won’t load at all. Any solutions please?

  • BashingFash 3 Qanons in a Trenchcoat (@BashingFash) reported

    .@signalapp being down isn't a bad thing right now: if anything, it shows there's an OVERWHELMING number of people who care about privacy and are moving to it. I would absolutely take a few million more users with the downside of growing pains. The more "normal" it is, the safer

  • phzix phzi (@phzix) reported

    @bklyn_skater @signalapp How would you identify any specific group on an end-to-end encrypted service, exactly? #brains

  • iumanggarg INDIAN 🇮🇳👳 🇮🇳 (@iumanggarg) reported

    @signalapp Work like a pro, we will wait for your good service.

  • ShaktiSrivastv Shakti Srivastav (@ShaktiSrivastv) reported

    @signalapp @elonmusk fix this!

  • Vaishnav_Jois Vaishnav Jois (@Vaishnav_Jois) reported

    @signalapp Even the donation is not working for me!

  • venkey_ariv var (@venkey_ariv) reported

    My dad who lives in India just installed @signalapp looks like people leaving the WhatsApp network are taking people with them. Are we really about to see a flippening? Or do you think it’ll die down after a few days and business as usual?

  • milk11435641 milk (@milk11435641) reported

    @amitkdw @anthowen03 @signalapp I am totally fine to pay a fix fee to use an apps respects my privacy. It’s good to have options. You have Whapsapp for free if you don’t want to pay a penny but sell your privacy, or I pay Signal to protect my privacy.

  • hs_toor Harpreet Toor (@hs_toor) reported

  • ssidharthmittal SIDHARTH MITTAL (@ssidharthmittal) reported

    @signalapp please fix - do not open keyboard when we click on "new message"/"contact" button. Too inconvenient. Learn from the seniors (Whatsapp, Telegram) #signalapp #signal #usingSignal

    @JnglstTICAL @signalapp You try scaling overnight when your downloads and user base suddenly goes from 10 million to 50 million. Lol, sit down.

  • moody_maestro Hiro (@moody_maestro) reported

    @signalapp Take your time to fix the issues. Don't sell yourself to Facebook or any other application in the name of big money! You help us maintain our privacy.
