Hm? I have backups running, it's under Settings → Conversations. Do you have a source for that bit about dislike?

- infotainment 3y agoYou have backups running on Android — the linked post is about how iOS doesn’t support backups. (And hasn’t for years, so it’s clearly not a priority) Anyway, this related comment thread notes similar impressions of the Signal team: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25686475 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25686475 > “I've tried to report bugs and talk to developers about this but there's one fundamental problem here - the Signal team fundamentally does not value chat history the same way a lot of people do. They think that destroying all chats is a reasonable thing to do when things get hard - which is the exact opposite to many WhatsApp users, which deeply value images and texts sent to them on that platform.” > “It's not a technical issue - they just think you're wrong when you want to keep your conversations.”
- Arnt 3y agoAh, so it's not a principled opposition to backups, just someone twisting words. Film at 11.
- infotainment 3y agoAh, so you’re not actually interested in this topic, you’re just a troll. Classic.
