I got it too. Sounds great. I frequently miss type and wish I could go back to fix it.

Delete for everyone, and resend is so jarring. π
mistype*
not sure if thatsthejoke.jpg
This is great news. usernames next, lets goooo
Usernames will always be one year away
If you're really worried about giving out your number, you can use virtual / temporary number. Just keep in mind it complicates backups and transferring to a new phone, etc. Puts into perspective if it's worth the hassle. Or maybe you just want usernames? π
Cloaked works pretty well for anonymous Signal registration. They give you a VOIP number that actually works on Signal, and you don't have to give them any personal data to sign up. It also works behind a VPN.
This is workable. Especially if work profile so you can run signal twice. If you use open source signal builds, you can run Molly in the same profile. So it's pretty trivial to get four different signal clients running in each profile, so you could have eight total on an Android phone.
Just a little inconvenient:)
Awesome! Long time coming.
the edit history should apply to "Deleted Messages" too
Wouldnβt that be the opposite of privacy? I decide I didnβt want you seeing something after all, but fuck me?
There are already signal clients that don't honor the delete request anyway, so from a privacy perspective you cant guarantee delete anyway, so its giving people a false sense of security, at best.
Here is a signal client that lets you ignore deletes: https://github.com/johanw666/Signal-Android ... Also, view once messages don't disappear, use your own map provider, database passphrase, custom backups. I don't really suggest anyone use this fork, molly.im is better, but its illustrative that capabilities are out there, and its more privacy and security focused to not mislead people about capabilities.
Is Beta only for subscribers?
No, just enroll in the Beta on the Play Store.
Not seeing it there.
EDIT: j/k, yes I do. Turns out I just had to open my eyes. Derp.
How did you get a signal contact?
It appeared by default for me.
I can edit messages on Signal stable version 6.35.3.
This is the only thing that I've been missing on Signal, that's great news!
How can you securely edit messages if they're not stored anywhere except the sending and receiving devices?..
Same as sending or deleting messages. An edit is just another message that the clients interpret differently. They modify a previous message instead of showing it as a new one.
I guess they just send the modified message and overwrite the previous version.
Isn't it already on the stable version? I have been using it on my android v.6.34.5.
Hmm. Gotta check.
