    @signalapp why is it so fvcking hard to pull up the qr code on my account so i can scan it on my new phone to sync my phone with my account? Wants me to make a @ username but wont take a random name i give it. Says there is an error. Its 2025 bro. Your shyt sucks.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @synthshareai @signalapp Since AIM shut down in 2017, there's no direct migration to Signal. If you have an old exported buddy list (e.g., CSV), manually add contacts via phone numbers or invites in the Signal app. Otherwise, reconnect individually—dial-up era to encrypted messaging!

  • sminmu 𝗦 𝗠𝗼𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗮𝗺𝘆 (@sminmu) reported

    “to prevent ratcheting, an attacker must prevent 216 - 35 out of every 216 messages from being delivered. While this is not a complete denial of service, it requires blocking over 99.9% of messages ...” via @signalapp

  • RabAlexander Rab Alexander (@RabAlexander) reported

    @signalapp Signal has the worst tech support you can imagine. I've been trying to get help on a simple issue for over a month. Nothing. I was a big supporter. Not anymore.

  • itsfolf Folf (@itsfolf) reported

    @uwukko @horsemankukka @signalapp how does domain fronting help when for something like meta they can just block the entire AS

  • PitchforkOU Pitchfork Operators Union (@PitchforkOU) reported

    @BreannaMorello Use @signalapp. Problem solved.

  • horsemankukka Kukka de Bierguirb Häst (@horsemankukka) reported

    @uwukko @signalapp maybe the circumvention setting gives you a proxy automatically? but it's not available without login so the servers can't be burned with so little effort??

  • gylik33_3 Glowie Conman - 4th POG(A) (@gylik33_3) reported

    @signalapp Hi. I think I might have found a problem with the donation mechanics. I had to create a new account and cannot stop my donations. Please provide me with a mail address to contact. xx

  • RabAlexander Rab Alexander (@RabAlexander) reported

    @signalapp Could I PLEASE get some support on transferring to a new phone. I have followed all the steps you have emailed me (three times). I have sent a detailed problem description with error log. You robo-respond telling me to try the things I've tried many times. It's been almost a month now. C'mon folks. Help me out here.

  • Adrenaline_Coin Verde 🛡️ (@Adrenaline_Coin) reported

    @LauraLoomer Abuse of power gone public. Next time lock @signalapp with each login that way no mistakes are made. 81 with a cell phone. Dangerous

  • tigran3rd Tigran ֍ (@tigran3rd) reported

    I want to build a new type of a social platform and open-source it @signalapp is up-to something, but they're not nearly as good as Telegram, or even some of the others we need to fix this

  • ilikenwf ilikenwf (@ilikenwf) reported

    @Matt_Bracken48 @signalapp's encryption is mathematically provably secure, though. It's the endpoint security and externally paired devices (like signal desktop) that's always the issue, because you'll never not generate metadata whether you're on a VPN that actually is private or not.

  • RaWhoolVijay Rahul Vijay (@RaWhoolVijay) reported

    @signalapp ffs fix the keyboard hiding bug.. its bothering as hell.

  • jharohit Rohit Jha (@jharohit) reported

    @Arattai Curious - Why not go @signalapp route and let data be stored on consumer devices? Takes away the issue of data warehousing and privacy concerns. Also helps concerns that Govt might be accessing it (even though they might not be)

  • InvestRepeat Save Invest Repeat 📈 (@InvestRepeat) reported

    @JumboWin1 Very true. But its not about "why use"; ofcourse there are MUCH better alternatives like @signalapp or even better @SimpleXChat etc. WhatsApp has billions of active users and this post is about how they can atleast somewhat protect some privacy while in a Meta service.
