That sucks and is quite unfortunate, would've been cool to have another option other than signing up with your phone number but I suppose it's alright
About time!! Been waiting for this for so long. This will definitely make the usability of Signal better and it'll also be more accessible to people who wanted a Telegram like way to talk to other folks. Requiring a number to still register isn't a bad thing in my eyes though sometimes it can be frustrating so I hope that there's an option to create an account without a number. Maybe the account will have finite time before it's auto-deleted if you don't input a number some time later to ensure that this option isn't abused to all hell by bots and malicious actors alike.
SOAD, Mudvayne and Static-X
Imagine a show where all 3 bands play new material, Static-X has already released some new stuff but SOAD (excluding those two single in 2020) and Mudvayane have yet to do so
It'd be an amazing show for all I know!
nah that thought crossed my mind too, I wouldn't be surprised if it was for that reason tbh
While it's true that voting for a purely retaliatory reason would be good but wouldn't you want your vote to have some amount of change? I'm not discrediting the integrity of the smaller parties but it really won't make much of a difference to vote for them even if it is towards a good cause simply because their size is too small to compete with the giants or even in state elections. Andhbhakts are everywhere unfortunately.
You're welcome
Hey there! Thank you so much for all the work you guys do, it's great to have an organization you can actually rely on to bring some amount of change <3
bs for sure
You're welcome!

yes they are! and no worries, you can still view their toots and see if their RTI requests have been responded to
oh that sucks, I've never used either so I wouldn't know
Btw Internet Freedom Foundation (or the IFF) filed several RTI requests (RTI = Request to information) regarding this situation. If anyone wants to follow their progress then here’s their Mastodon account: https://mastodon.world/@internetfreedom@mas.to
The IFF is a highly trustworthy and well respected organization that fights for Indians digital rights and democratic freedoms. They’ve done a lot of good work over the years, they even helped VLC to get unblocked when it was banned in India.
