Link previews are not only a privacy concern, but also a security concern, as you're essentially exposing your Signal app to external code and content, and there is a small chance there could be a 0day in the engine they use that might allow a malicious website to compromise your Signal app or even the whole phone.

I guess calyx has more friendly devs, both communities are good. But GrapheneOS is actually more secure and Google Services implementation is better for security. So choice is up to you. if you dont like daniel micay and dont want use grapheneos because of it - its fine. Im using GrapheneOS, because celebrite cant break it, more security features and so on (idk if celebrite can hack calyx) p.s. im not saying that calyxos is not secure. It is secure, but just for me and my threat model it is better. And CalyxOS is a good OS. Also Daniel is no longer lead developer and dont use social media

Signal is so painful. If I restore my phone - lockout. Start all chats again. And no, the restore from another device is so buggy it really does not work. How can they be this many years into delivering a service and still not know how to give people continuation of their messaging. Secuity teams CAN’T use this app.
@pedclarkemobile2 ай бұрын
I have a 6 digit pin. Hiw long would it take somebody with ability to open signal? I have 24hr delete on all conversations so if I was detained or phone was seized I only need it to last 24 hours because nothing private will be left after the 24h auto delete. I have a problem forgetting PIN numbers but ut kinda defeats the whole privacy objective if my weak link is an easy to crack passcode.

@@UNcommonSenseAUS Your alternative? A quality password manager is surely better than many other options. Besides, it is very easy to remediate if you’re that concerned. Just add your own personal salt to any passwords stored in the manager. So if your account or password is compromised, then they only know part of your password. Plus 2FA using an authenticator app or hardware (e.g. Yubikey), should protect your accounts further. In my experience, it is more often phishing or session hijacking that are the predominant route to compromise.
