Signal App is the latest alternative app to crash on Friday.
Signal is the latest app struggling to keep up with the massive growth they are experiencing.
If you’re wondering why signal is down, might have something to do with their installs increasing from 10 million to 50 million since jan 12 https://t.co/7PCwnp1uel

Signal posted about their struggles on Twitter.
We have been adding new servers and extra capacity at a record pace every single day this week nonstop, but today exceeded even our most optimistic projections. Millions upon millions of new users are sending a message that privacy matters. We appreciate your patience.

We are making progress towards getting the service back online. Privacy is our top priority, but adding capacity is a close second right now.

GAB (Dissenter) and Brave browsers,
Rumble and bitchute video,
Signal for voice and messaging (Dorsey does have some hooks on this btw),
Session for messaging,
Epoch times for news,
Fastmail and ProtonMail for email,
Duckduckgo and dogpile for search,
And use a paid VPN like private internet access.
Leave the phone at home and pay cash as much as possible.
Today’s upgrade caused it to stopped working on the smart phone. Had to reboot, then it kicked back in. My guess is a new redirect (wink) was included.

I just wonder if we are being herded onto these apps, so we can be cut off from social media with single computer toggle?

The next generation of apps will use a decentralized model, which is really what the internet is designed for. No central servers. Such a design makes it impossible to turn off as it has no core, no central hub.
Tried CloutHub. Too many fake celebrity accounts and spam ads.
Gab. Not impressed.
Free Republic. The best. Hands down. No need to go elsewhere.
No ads.
Liberal Zots.
Great dialogue, even when we call each other idiots.
Signal has CIA connections. Check out what Yasha Levine has published about them. Careful.
Can’t wait to try it!!!
Amen!!
Bkmk
Thanks for the recommendations
.
I’ve long said that most billionaires are really Government agents.
Yeah I just read that document. It’s a pretty stern warning about Signal. Says not your friend.
Beware.
Great dialogue, even when we call each other idiots.
That secure Dissenter browser is fast as hell!
