Is signal open source? Can't someone fork the code and change it to be pure peer to peer over onion routing to set up credentials?
@BuckRogers1965 @signalapp I don't know. Even if Signal were open source, I don't know how to compile Signal and upload onto iPhone so that it actually runs, without me spending unacceptable amount of resources (money, time, nerves), and I don't know whether it's not intentionally obstructed.

Do you have to compile signal now? I am confused, why would you have to compile anything if it is open source?

@kouichi @disorderlyf they are dumb enough to disable something they use themself, just look all the US departement they disabled, and reenabled when they have seen the damage (not the one judge forced them to reopen).

@BuckRogers1965 @signalapp Because if you change the source and don't compile it, the old binary will run and the change won't apply.

Why are you arguing, are you ok buddy?

@clock also, here's a simple problem i had to face. i lost access to my phone number and since the signal account is tied to that specific phone number, i can't use the account anymore.
@signalapp@clock @signalapp @gettie yeah that's because #Signal is run by useful idiots!

@signalapp very interesting facts

@signalapp Signal IMO has bad security because when someone decides they are not interested in an overpriced, underperforming service of "phone number" and stops using their SIM, they cannot deregister the number from Signal and the new owner of the number either can hijack their Signal account, or people may be blocked from using newly purchased SIMs with Signal.
Also, authoritarian regimes IMO can temporarily transfer a number into a provider's internal SIM in order to hijack a Signal account and impersonate a dissident against another dissident, facilitating abduction, torture and murder.
I feel
c o n t e m p t
towards Signal when it is designed this way.

@clock @signalapp Did you know that you can re-register with your PIN only?
https://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/5440120029082-Re-registering-using-your-Signal-PIN
There is even an option to require the PIN for re-registering your account in the settings. Search for "Registration Lock" in the settings.

@signalapp could you guys officially support Flathub for your desktop client or atleast a .rpm package

@disorderlyf @signalapp the fact they only use AWS, Gcloud and Azure, with no other server anywhere else, so a simple order from an orange nazi pedophile can stop the whole network with no other emergency backup.
@lexinova @disorderlyf @signalapp I started looking into #deltachat !!
To me (for me) that solves all these problems. Decentralized, using email transport system, lots of "chatmail relays" (think of it as email providers) to choose from, and switch instantly if you want. Chatmail relays easy to host (they say).
Now I need to convince family and friends to start using it......... -

But i wait their "docker image" before hosting a relay myself.
And they put the call feature in stable version (before proposing it to my familly (their first question will certainly be, how do we call with this XD ))
