Google has known about a bug that breaks VPN apps for 7 months, leaving users exposed with no warning or error, just a VPN app that stopped working in the background.

If you're using ANY VPN on Android, you can help us by getting Google's attention to fix it.

Others like @mullvadnet and Wireguard reported it even earlier, in August.

Google's response? "I don't see anything unusual."

Everything is better than #Telegram which additionally stores message contents in all group chats/channels and most 1:1 chats.

Only answer if you have direct and personal experience please. Is there ANY way on IOS (NOT ON ANDROID) to get Signal to help you clean its massive storage? I've manually tried to delete some large things but it is not helping. It is using 11GB and I can't do a thing anymore. Help?
