@Agusx1211 @bourbonni @signalapp My grandmother uses Signal to call me, Status is by far more difficult for someone like her (from seed phrase to wallet too visible). And it has the same token "problem" that Signal may soon have.

@signalapp This is a terrible move that will stop me from ever donating again.

@balajis @moxie @signalapp The problem is that a centralized coin, combined with a centralized messaging app that requires your phone number, is not privacy-optimized at all. And is specially problematic when said coin forbids its use on certain countries + there were far better alternatives like Monero.

@punkt That was frankly the last missing feature for me on this phone, but there is one small issue though... how to link to @signalapp's desktop app without a camera ? @punktsupport

@TheBlueMatt @signalapp @mobilecoin this is the classic problem in this space: developers stuck in the traditional ways of software development think they can solve a problem by writing their own code. In crypto, a new centralized coin, no matter how great it's technical specs are, is instant trash

@TheBlueMatt @signalapp @mobilecoin It's the same old problem, we keep using these centralized products believing they won't eventually sell us out, or betray us, but they *always* do. Unless a messaging app is built on something like XMPP + OMEMO for end-to-end encryption, it's a waste of time.

@TheBlueMatt @signalapp @mobilecoin Right, so it may be a cash grab. But the void of private payment, in that case, is a kind of "attractive nuisance." Because cryptocurrency hasn't fixed it, people can keep selling things that claim to. Fix the void, it gets harder.

@scearley @signalapp Over 481k followers? And they can’t provide tech support? QA? This is terrible. I’m so sad about your mom.

@woonomic @signalapp I lost trust, I always treat signal as less evil as federated service not possible, central server. For sure better than Whatsapp, but I will switch to other alternative in near future as this business model i do not like

@signalapp Does Signal actually have any user support? I've sent 2 requests for help with the windows desktop app. It has been at least 2 weeks at this point. I've been a user for several years. The desktop app is useless to me with the current functionality. What gives??

@signalapp Please, stick to messaging and stop experimental payments that are going to ruin your reputation and service so we all have to migrate our social network to other apps. I would hate to switch again

@secparam @signalapp @mobilecoin It’s the “finance (and pocket large parts of, plus let VCs take a margin before dumping) a coin by pitching how you’re gonna sell it to a captive audience” part I take issue with, plus, if we’re honest, the MOB value fluctuation is gonna be laughable for a “UX focused” product.

(@sakeblues) reported
@tdrud @moscowchill @signalapp I mean, just a few months ago the status quo was playing with the idea to shut down trading for assets, based on mentions about them on social media, and put more regulations on those platforms themselves.

@InsidrJoe @skwp @signalapp Trouble is, the developers have changed the rules in a missive architectural way. They have enticed us all in then locked the gates behide us. The risk reward benefits in removing phone numbers in place for an unknown altcoin verification process is too high for my liking.

@signalapp Take it from people whose work has continued to be influential for the past 50 years: "do one thing and do it well". Please focus on being a messaging app. I will hold donations and start looking at alternatives on the assumption that you will continue down this path.
