Maritza De Jesus (@Chica_Maru80) reported@littleelflady @signalapp Same issue. I don’t get notified any longer when someone leaves me a message. Have to open the app to then see it. Very annoying. I tried te registering. Don’t want to have to delete the app cause I don’t want to lose the actual thread. Signal needs to fix it
-
Catherine King (@April5886) reported@the_officiator @signalapp These are people who do not (or should not) have my number. It's no big deal, I finally just deleted the app. I spend all day dealing with tech issues; I have very little patience for it on my own time.

maqp (@markus_ottela) reported@MaxRovensky @evacide @signalapp the client indeed protects you from the service provider. Telegram sends the aforementioned messages to server, that has access to the content. So advertising Telegram's FOSS nature and RB is dangerous, because it misleads people into thinking it reflects transparency, and 2/

Gregg Brysiewicz (@GregorMcBride) reported@Gunsinaustralia @honkFl @signalapp And desktop not working either, seems servers are filtered, not connecting. I tried all VPNs

Teresa (@Trblytenacious) reported@signalapp Hello @signalapp. Please help! My messages show as sent but are not being delivered same goes for messages sent to me. How do I fix this please?
-
John Woods (@zenbanjoman) reportedAm I the only one who can't download the Windows @signalapp right now? Or is the link not working for everyone else too?
-
Gitworm (@Gi7w0rm) reported@syvergy @signalapp Why? Because a Signal Server breach could indeed mean that their internal passwords have been compromised and that their infrastructure in other countries is also at risk of beeing compromised. Which would at minimum mean a risk to their service functionality.

okawaffles (@okawaffles) reported@signalapp My friends on android seem to be randomly facing issues where they stop receiving messages and can’t send me messages. My friends (and me) on iOS aren’t affected. If my friends reinstall the app, everything is fixed. It keeps happening about 5-6 hours after they-

Perry E. Metzger (@perrymetzger) reported@dheeranet @Cryptomnomiconz @signalapp Well, I don’t know what to tell you. My least technically skilled friends don’t seem to have any trouble with it, and neither do hundreds of millions of other people. Perhaps you’re just not good enough with technology.
-
Yarno Ritzen (@YarnoRitzen) reported@noneprivacy @signalapp Yeah, it of course depends on what's the issue!
-
William Dance (@williampdance) reportedSignal (@signalapp) has addressed circulating rumours that the service has been hacked and its messages compromised. In a statement, Signal said “this is false and Signal is not under attack" adding they suspect they are victims of a coordinated disinformation operation.
-
Николина Трнинић (@zlatok0sa) reported@signalapp I need help with my app.
-
dheera (@dheeranet) reported@Cryptomnomiconz @signalapp The damn thing requires me to log in with my phone and link a device. I shouldn't need to login with a phone when I have a massive immobile desktop in front of me. Facebook Messenger doesn't require that.
-
James Pinnell 🇺🇦 (@syvergy) reported@Gi7w0rm @signalapp Even if they got access to a docker container, that doesn't allow them to intercept any messages because Signal does not have the encryption keys *at all*. At worse, they could bring down the app, slow down message transmission or disrupt service delivery.

SMT Solvers (@SMT_Solvers) reported@signalapp Release a stripped down open source build for the reasonably paranoid? Have it binutils itself for integrity?
