@session_app @signalapp really poor taste to use their outage to promote your competing service. practice #hugops

@tipyn2903 @session_app @signalapp Some people depend on messaging apps being available. Session isn't just a competitor; it is a new type of technology that is not vulnerable to a central server going down. I am going to check Session out, and hope Signal becomes decentralized too.

@RealGlenMerlin @WorstAtRoutine @signalapp Sure, but is everything replicated across those providers so that nuking one of them off the map won't bring the service down?

@tipyn2903 @session_app @signalapp Yeah, I'm interested to learn about Session, and I'm all for kicking the bad guys when they're down. But... Signal and their team are not the bad guys, the exact opposite.

@LBersee @GordonW09576304 @signalapp That was my first assumption because I was using it on desktop when it went down. I checked my phone and tried sending a message there over cell service to see if it was my home internet and finally got the explanation message in the mobile app.

Session
(@session_app) reported
@stunt_nuts @signalapp Some people depend on their private messaging app not having a central point of weakness that can cause it to go down.

@GordonW09576304 @signalapp What's also dissapointing is the fact that the desktop app simply shows a 'Disconnected - Check your network connection. Click to reconnect.' message, leading the user to believe there is a problem on their end... No helpful message like the mobile app.

@signalapp I hate how people cry about the service not being available because of an outage. Things can go wrong. Sometimes a third party has issues that you have no control over. Everybody that ever worked with IT knows that. People will always give you **** and act like entitled kids.

@signalapp Can you specify where exactly? It would help users.

@signalapp No-one spends a penny for open source Signal's growth (free service with high security, no ads), but complains a lot in an outage. Just be patient for a short-while and go back to what is required to do in your offline hours.

@signalapp Nowadays I rarely check data connection if experience issues with sending texts

@signalapp Is the outage regional, or is it network wide?
