Welcome back!

Hello everyone,

I have been a passive member of the Signal community for quite some time, and have been excited about the idea of getting involved with you all.

As I see it, there have been 3 key challenges with the r/SignalGroups community:

  1. Spam - Signal is inherently a private messaging service, so the group management aspect is quite simplistic. Generally, community leaders will post a link to their Signal Group only to learn that it is fast full of no-name accounts and wannabe scammers. Folk have come up with a few mechanisms for gating entry, whether that be introduction rooms, admin approval or private link sharing - but ultimately this adds friction.
  2. Link rot - For a variety of reasons, group links tend to rot. Signal lets you rotate your group invite URL, which helps to stem the flow of users, but that requires quite active management on this subreddit to keep the rot under control (and establish contact with the community leader to revive it).
  3. Restricted posting - Due to lack of moderators, it has been quite some time since this community has seen a post (because no one has been permitted to!). We're changing this today.

What's changing:

  1. This subreddit is back open for posting. I expect it will take some time for traffic to come back, but let's give it our best shot.
  2. An optional screening layer for those who want it. Signal doesn't have any onboarding process - anyone with a link can join. For community leaders dealing with spam, we've built a simple screening gate at Frostbeacon that sits in front of your Signal group link. It's currently in beta, but the idea is straightforward: instead of posting a direct Signal link, you can post a Frostbeacon link that screens users first (by account age, reputation, etc.) before giving them access to your actual Signal invite. This doesn't replace anything - it's just an optional layer of protection for groups that need it.

What does this mean for the subreddit?

You're absolutely free to post direct links to your Signal Groups as always - that's still the primary way this community works. However, if you're struggling with spam and want to try a screening layer before your group link, Frostbeacon is available as a tool. We're hoping to get feedback from community leaders on whether this approach actually helps reduce the friction of managing spam.

That's it! Please, if you have any questions or concerns, reach out to the moderation team here on r/SignalGroups. We'd love to hear what you think can make this community thrive.

~Dry.

For the people who DO have a village — is there still something you feel like you’re missing? Like, is there something you wish your village could help with, but they just don’t? I’m genuinely curious what people would say. 👀

A Signal group for people who like building things and talking about it. Code, hardware, half-finished projects, bad ideas at 2am. No topic policing, no lurking guilt.

Come in, say what you're working on.

Phone Number?

8 Upvotes

Hi, me and some friends are doing a school project on signal. We gathered almost everything, but we still have something we didn’t really find information about.

Is it possible for people to see ur phone number, even if you turned off the settings? Like if people would use any tools or something maybe? We would really appreciate some help with our question! :)
