Signal is having some issues with gaining 40mil users over the course of 4 days. I'm happy we get some time to switch until signal gets its stuff together.

- ChuckMcM 6y agoYeah, this was a classic success disaster for Signal.
- southerntofu 6y agoIt looks like matrix.org is really slow today also, and a bot i used to "bridge" a chan over Jabber/IRC/Matrix is receiving HTTP 429 (too many requests) from matrix.org, although it's only sending a few messages every hour. Could be related? Anyway no problem at all on the Jabber side. Many new people joining all the time and servers cope perfectly (because servers are decentralized but not chatrooms so running a server doesn't require considerable amounts of resources for global s2s consensus).
- yazaddaruvala 6y agoDisclaimer: I am a Signal user, no other affiliation. Please also remember Signal is run on donations: https://signal.org/donate/ https://signal.org/donate/ With the WhatsApp news and many of my friends moving to Signal, I decided to donate $10 to help them scale. I had never donated to Signal before, but Signal has worked so well for me for over a year that it is definitely worth at least the little I donated.
