@grok @signalapp @ThreemaApp Pay for the quality and service they provide, it's reasonable. And I guess it is planning to adjust PQC soon.

TIL when downloading photos from Signal sometimes they come as "signal-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMMSS.jpeg" and sometimes as "IMG_xyz.jpg" Even photos from the same message can come in different formats. @signalapp any help?

@PuppeteerSock @signalapp Signal costs money. You also need income to pay for electricity, home and food. If there was a flaw in backups or transfers such as encryption being broken, people watching code on github would have found it months ago. every code change is public. its most likely safe

@signalapp People complaining that they have to pay for a service. The entitlement of those who have grown up getting free stuff at the cost of their privacy.

@techbore @btoshi25 @signalapp I still think you should only use your phone number to verify only if it is required by the service, I wouldn't just give it out to everyone

@signalapp hello, I can't register my phone number. Is there a global problem or it's just in Bulgaria? Every time I try, it's says that there is a problem with sending sms with verification code.

@signalapp you down right now? Got disconnected over night, both clients say they can't reach the service when trying to reregister. Your status page claims all is up.

A few wins already in 2026: - Deactivated Facebook and Instagram. - Moved family conversations to @signalapp after a lot of convincing. - Shifted most of my digital life to @ProtonPrivacy. - Migrated and deleted 45k photos from Google Photos to @ProtonDrive. - I genuinely don’t know 99% of my passwords anymore. - Cut down AI usage instead of letting it run my day. - Cleaned up my phone and removed every unused app. And this is just week one of 2026.

@KimKatieUSA @Meta @signalapp There’s always a solution there’s always a way to fix the problem One of my first thoughts is say you’re going somewhere you’re not and only tell a select group of people where you’re that is, see if that news gets out, while you’re heading somewhere completely different.

@signalapp could you adress the issue where spamming message reactions via API can give someone info about your device usage via side channel? for all I know, it's been reported a good while ago

@signalapp Just tested same setup on android and of course it worked, so either Signal's iOS problems are the crap OS and they were too lazy to work through them, or the android team is just better there.

Privacy is a practice, not a choice: Make it a habit - even when seeking help. With secure @EdgeWallet support on @SignalApp, you can get assistance without giving up control over your data.

@JimJones1913 @signalapp Because it is meant to be a WhatsApp alternative. There are tons of other privacy-focused apps if you don't want that convenience. Plus, while relying on a phone num can be a huge problem especially in authoritarian countries, Signal requires you to enter a PIN when you login++
