Official confirmation:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;signalapp&#x2F;status&#x2F;1350118809860886528" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;signalapp&#x2F;status&#x2F;1350118809860886528</a><p>EDIT: Interesting geographic usage data in the tweet replies. Most replies by far coming from Indian Signal users, many comparing Signal&#x27;s reliability to WhatsApp. Also strong showing in the comments from Africa (esp. Nigeria) and the Middle East. I wonder how many joined Signal just recently in response to Facebook&#x27;s changes to WhatsApp [0].<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.buzzfeednews.com&#x2F;article&#x2F;pranavdixit&#x2F;whatsapp-privacy-policy-changes" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.buzzfeednews.com&#x2F;article&#x2F;pranavdixit&#x2F;whatsapp-pr...</a>

They tweeted that they went from 10M+ to 50M+ installs on Google Play recently, so that’s probably what’s happening:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;signalapp&#x2F;status&#x2F;1349577579091566592?s=21" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;signalapp&#x2F;status&#x2F;1349577579091566592?s=2...</a>

DNS is resolving to 127.0.0.1<p><pre><code> wget https:&#x2F;&#x2F;textsecure-service.whispersystems.org&#x2F;v1&#x2F;config --2021-01-15 11:55:13-- https:&#x2F;&#x2F;textsecure-service.whispersystems.org&#x2F;v1&#x2F;config Resolving textsecure-service.whispersystems.org (textsecure-service.whispersystems.org)... 127.0.0.1 Connecting to textsecure-service.whispersystems.org (textsecure-service.whispersystems.org)|127.0.0.1|:443... failed: Connection refused. </code></pre> Edit: Looking at the logs, it went down before the DNS started resolving to loopback. This may be part of a mitigation.

Just donated some money to Signal. My only issues with the app has been minor usability ones but they&#x27;ll fix those.<p>Signal the organization, the app, etc are all worthy of support and I for one thank Facebook for pushing millions of users into Signal.

The &quot;downage&quot; is intermittent; sending messages for me (middle of the US on Google Fiber) alternates between taking forever to send and straight-up failing. Desktop app keeps showing the yellow &quot;Disconnected&quot; banner. At first I thought Google Fiber was down again (it&#x27;s snowing right now...) but checking #Signal on Twitter and DownDetector.com clued me in pretty quick that this was a Signal issue. I was wondering if a massive influx of users might lead to growth pains.

I&#x27;m not sure if this is because of all the new users, so maybe someone that has been using Signal for a while longer can pitch in: Is the Desktop experience really as bad as it has been over the past few days?<p>It took 4 minutes for me this morning to replay a chat of maybe 200 messages, and that&#x27;s with one person. I can&#x27;t even imagine how bad it must be with multiple big groups. Sending takes ages, often being out of sync with the phone app, and I get notifications for messages I replied to half an hour ago on my Desktop when unlocking my phone.<p>Not sure if I&#x27;d wanna stay on Signal at the moment if it stays like this, maybe Matrix is really the better choice - at least Element on the web is by far superior to signal.

Time for Matrix to brag about multiple home servers!
mikece超过 4 年前
I can&#x27;t say I&#x27;m surprised.... anyone on Signal (who gave the app access to their contacts) has seen a MASSIVE influx of new uers, and it&#x27;s not like Signal is running in AWS and can just scale up more EC2 instances. This may be an issue for the next month or more as hundreds -- if not thousands -- of new servers can be added to the back end.

Recently saw an influx of messages from signal: &quot;* is now on Signal!&quot;<p>And yes, it&#x27;s down here in Toronto-Hamilton metro, Canada as well.

It&#x27;s sad to happen now, but I&#x27;m so glad to see the sudden interest for Signal :)<p>Good luck to the engineers at Signal! &lt;3

I don&#x27;t have (and don&#x27;t want) a cellphone. Is there a way for me to use signal? Maybe something that relays SMS?

Family and friends have starting using it as the main messaging app the past 3 months. Definitely growing.

Sods law, been setting up the matrix bridge, and wondered why I couldn&#x27;t get anything to authenticate!

They went from 10 million users to 50 million users virtually overnight.<p>I think these kind of issues are understandable.

Is there a way to be less centralised? So that it can&#x27;t go down because a central server does?
