@brokencypher_ @madamelula @signalapp Sometimes we've the same problem, it closes by itself. We've to restart our phones. Then everything is OK again until the next time. This intermittent problem comes once every month to two months. We use mainly Android OS. On Linux phones never had a problem.

@BooksBoring @signalapp You’re aware someone with Signal Desktop synced can in principle just pull all the messages right out? The problem is they can tout them back on the phone? So your privacy “people should lose their messages on their phone for security” ship has already sailed.

@ProtonPrivacy I wonder if you may consider merging with, buying or creating your own version of @signalapp. You both have great products which put privacy first and since Proton is building out it’s Privacy Ecosystem, having a high quality app like signal would help with that.

@madamelula @signalapp Big groups with many people cause a lot of load because of the security Signal is providing. I was part of a group with 1000 people and my (old) phone was really slow when I started Signal. We moved to another service since such layers groups are not private by definition anyways

@joshjob42 @signalapp "You can not do this if you do not have access to your message history. Signal does not have a copy of your messages. " Seems like it already has feature parity for iOS and Android? I don't understand the issue?

@BooksBoring @signalapp I can screenshot anything you send so that’s already a problem. If Signal wants to only be a niche app that’s fine, but I get the impression, since they keep adding features like stickers and stories etc, that they would like to be a major player. They won’t be without backup.

I need to wipe my iPhone and restore from a backup to try and fix a network issue, but on iOS @signalapp can only transfer message history from one device to another, so if I wipe and restore.. I lose all my message history.

1. @signalapp is an end-to-end encrypted messaging service. Think imessage but built like a fortress. Pros -end-to-end encrypted. -Can send media and files -Signal is open-source and run by a nonprofit. (no incentive to snoop)

@joshjob42 @signalapp It's a difference between a supported and intended workflow and one that you are forcing to work. I could also turn my car into a boat, doesn't mean it's going to be a good boat. The messaging service you desire already seems to exist - why try to change Signal into them?

(@brokencypher_) reported
@madamelula @signalapp Well for the obvious reason. We all get the same software and if it was an issue with the app itself everyone would be complaining. So logically it's most likely something to troubleshoot on your end.
