@0xCAFAD @BasedBeffJezos @signalapp The people who use Molly-FOSS on AOSP devices will be able to confirm if their messaging worked or was still broken.

Y'all realize this isn't @signalapp fault? Go blame #aws. Signals only issue is that they didn't do a high availability setup. But that takes 💰... When's the last time you donated to the cause your complaining about?

@taltalon @BasedBeffJezos @signalapp If you can't launch an EC2 instance, multi-az is not going to help.

I’m not going to trust X Chat, or any other messaging service just because someone says “trust me bro!” I trust @signalapp because anyone can look under the open source Signal hood and verify. AWS (Amazon Web Services) reliance is a problem for the entire internet, and yes, that’s a big problem.

@BasedBeffJezos @signalapp Why can't Signal be down? Did you think Signal bought the hardware and spun up the servers?

@taltalon @BasedBeffJezos @signalapp This was a world-wide outage so multi-region wouldn't have helped. Multi-provider might be a solution but personally companies need to just stop using cloud and go back to on-prem data centers and solutions.

@BasedBeffJezos @signalapp Not actually true. Cloud customers are now using all hyper scalers, not just one. There are a lot off network and security issues with that not to mention people skills.

@mer__edith I love @signalapp and would love to see it more resilient. As it is a solved problem to send encrypted private messages using crypto rails, Signal app could degrade to "crypto mode" in case of server unavailability. It would not be a free service, but the user could be willing to pay for this safety net, if needed. Is it a bad idea @mer__edith ?
