PSA: we're aware that Signal is down for some people. This appears to be related to a major AWS outage. Stand by.

@Mer__edith "Some" people is quite the understatement ... I hope your admins can switch us all over to another AWS region so we can use Signal again. (Yes, I am one of the "some" people affected and yes, it is causing real problems for me)

@jwildeboer if you haven't yet, I recommend you to look into #DeltaChat for private communications

@adbenitez @jwildeboer
Or use x chat 😂🤣😂
He promotes x chat now (objectively)

DeltaChat is good but the problem here is not the Signal..
Signal wasn't the only one that had problems today.. these things happen rarely..

@wolfblade @adbenitez When Elon Musk says he doesn’t trust Signal, it means I made the right choice and will continue to use it :)

@jwildeboer the right decision ignoring that a lot of the millions spend by #signal go to #Amazon, man I hate this timeline

@jwildeboer Also, in a network, ”some” people directly affected by an outage means all people connected to directly affected people are experiencing indirect outage.
