  常隆威 (@ChangW30200) reported 6 minutes ago

  @signalapp I believe that to solve this problem, we must learn from the software Session/SimpleX and remove the real-name registration requirement for phone numbers. This would render any hacking efforts futile.

  @WIFI_DE_ @signalapp Wr had the same issue for weeks. They don't even reply to messages. I am giving up on Signal.. it looks like they are shutting us out.. i used to have the account then changed my phone. Phew . Their nightmare started.

  @signalapp Agreed — that’s just dumb. They’re creating new issues instead of fixing the one.

  @signalapp Freedom's voice is silenced when internet dies. Help keep it alive. #DigitalBlackOutIran #IranRevolution2026

  @bradbury2010 @signalapp oh, apologies. I think we need to make a real distinction between secrecy and privacy and have established rights, like the Americans do, that protect our right to privacy. This can be broken under the condition there is enough solid evidence someone is doing something harmful

  @signalapp @404mediaco SMS Provider is down for Nepal. i am unable to log in to new device. fix it ASAP.

  @zchat_app @signalapp 👏👏👏 💯 right! That's why Spritz Chat is built differently, so this issue can't happen here!

  @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?

  @_AbuMuhammad_ @signalapp Terrible advice

  Eternal Imagination (@eternal747) reported 23 minutes ago

  @KELECHUKWU_OTF @eazytvmedia The only problem with it is that it feels too casual. People don't use it for Professional Groups. I want to mention @signalapp here. People should really consider it, over WhatsApp.

  @signalapp no repro matters but listed checked versions would help teams close noisy incident queues

• 
  ENIGMA 🦍 (@MelvinDaEnigma) reported 24 minutes ago

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

  Liran Cohen (CTV + CSFS) (@itsLIRAN) reported 26 minutes ago

  @simulx4 @signalapp I'm working on it! It's a hard problem to solve, and even with my current solution there is some metadata leakage. Some of the metadata can be obfuscated for protocols that aren't many-to-many in large numbers.

  Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s Ghost (@dietrichBonh) reported 32 minutes ago

  @signalapp Idk. I’m almost always on the side of more privacy but jr this can’t help a lot of children from unimaginable horrors it doesn’t look bad to me. I would suffer any inconvenience for that.

  Tech_Temp (@Tech_Temp_) reported 35 minutes ago

  @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 watched phishing kits move from login pages to fake support scripts after trust improved

  Santiago Pliego (@SantiagoPliego) reported 38 minutes ago

  TIL if your iPhone storage is almost full, Signal bricks itself. Make your backups, folks. (Also, @signalapp please fix!)

  @Mandy03567961 @signalapp 😔 they better not shut it down I hope they stand there ground

  Tom Jones’ cousin (@pierre_rud53846) reported 40 minutes ago

  @signalapp Signal is letting Romanian scammers use my account to steal money off Irish people… I reported the issue to them over a month ago and the company refuses to look into it

  MeanHash ₿ ✪ (@MeanHash) reported 41 minutes ago

  So @signalapp what the play here? Can't bow down to this rule.

  npalsensei (@npalsensei) reported 42 minutes ago

  @AeldorThalion @Viber @signalapp Welp. The problem is that most of my contacts are either on fb (which I don't have anymore) or Viber. I can't just randomly tell everyone to go into signal or anything, that's usually the main issue, not whether *I* can switch. I can. My network doesn't switch🫠.

  Alberto Nunez (@Alberto8793) reported 47 minutes ago

  @signalapp Hi Signal team — solo dev building an AGPL app on libsignal. To ship it on the Apple App Store I'd need a §7 App Store additional permission for libsignal (you did this for an earlier library ). I've filed the details in a GitHub issue on the libsignal repo. Could I get it in front of the right person? My code's AGPL, full source published. Thanks for libsignal. 🙏

  @signalapp please fix it!

  Deus (@deuslexic) reported 49 minutes ago

  Signal security with CAPTCHA is non-sense. I cannot pass it for 3 days, manually with my agents. I need to assign a new number, and I've been throttled after just several attempts (it was carrier issues). @signalapp can you be less idiotic, please?

  Mister Ree (@MisterRee321) reported 50 minutes ago

  @ShaneAKAProp @beverleyturner @signalapp Not my problem.

• 
  AlmightyA (@AlmightyAye) reported 52 minutes ago

  @Mandy03567961 @signalapp Shutting it down in the face of a criminal demand like this is submission and accepting defeat. This situation needs people openly and proudly defying it, while calling it what it is, and that's a human rights violation.

• 
  SignalVoyager (@signalvoyager) reported 58 minutes ago

  @notesnook @signalapp Signal devs must lead the way leading other devs to takre control back. They should guide other devs. Yet they follow common protocols and win stupid prices like this. Then cry for Apple support to help them fix things. I expect better from Signal. (n/n)

  @signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

  @yegortk @signalapp No it's a simple problem we want privacy

  @BrendanEich @signalapp It’s an iOS issue, not Signal’s problem. Dump your Apple phone, us GrapheneOS …done.
