Fork from the JohanW fork of Signal, a private messenger for Android. It adds the option to import Whatsapp conversations. The purpose of this fork is to make the transition to Signal easier. It was created out of a personal need and might not be supported or extended in the long run. (by jukefoxer)

Elon on Signal
I tried to use them, but the UX is utterly broken on iOS. I find that they'd be a very convenient way to share photos of my cat with family and friend without being obnoxious sending photos in chat all day.

Removing SMS support from Signal Android (soon)
There's another reason for iOS users to avoid Signal: They eat up gigs of storage space, refuse to ever clear it, and are very resistant to accepting that it's even a problem at all: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-iOS/issues/4916

Telegram is asking German users on how to share information with law enforcement
Signal bugs on ios really are a pain point for people that I have convinced to switch. Even basic things, the ios app does not seem to use the correct camera API which makes using the internal camera lower quality which also makes video calls blurry.

Twilio Incident: What Signal Users Need to Know
From my 5-minute reading of the Signal source code it seems that disabling the PIN results in the generation of a random 256-bit master key for cloud storage encryption:

The primary developer has stated previously that cloud storage is used even with the PIN disabled:

Tell HN: iOS Signal eats your disk space
1. It's not stolen. It's used. It may not be used efficiently (or, if you're correct, used sensibly at all) but it's not stolen.
2. If deleted data not being purged from your iOS device is a "significant security flaw" then you shouldn't be using a device from Apple or Google; your threat model is way beyond the two big players.
3. Hyperbolic comments[1] don't help issues being re-opened. Helpful comments, preferably with steps to reproduce, and a polite note that the issue is still current, will get the issue re-opened in my experience. Getting on your high horse and making silly claims would get you put to the bottom of the pile if it were my job.
[1] https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-iOS/issues/4916#issuecom...
Signal on iOS will not free up any disk space when you delete chats or media. You cannot see or clear usage in the app or in iOS settings. There’s a potential security problem where your data is not actually being deleted when you delete chats.
We are having no luck getting the Signal team to acknowledge the issue. The ticket was automatically closed despite activity.

1. Be aware that a large portion of your storage space might be stolen by Signal.
2. Be aware that this might be a significant security flaw
3. If anyone can get Signal to pay attention, that would be great.
