Thanks for the info! We'll all keep the fingers crossed. At least the desktop version connected to it is still working, so I could narrowly escape a major communication disaster today.
EDIT: ...WAS working. I made the stupid mistake of unregistering on the phone in the hope of making Axolotl work again. Axolotl apparently had some success in communicating with the Signal Servers: The desktop app on my notebook does not work anymore and asks me to reconnect to the phone -- which is not possible. So I strongly advise anyone who uses the desktop app against following the instructions below the error message to "unregister and register again" - this will only mess up things even more.
Oh, sounds bad. Sorry to hear that... And yes, Signal Desktop gets to know, when an account is de-registered.
Have you tried to re-register Axolotl? If it works, you "should" be able to re-link your Signal Desktop.

Yeah, several times, but unfortunately to no avail.
After I was completely disconnected, I registered Signal with my Pinephone SIM-Card on an (otherwise unused) Android phone and linked that to my Signal desktop. So now I have a working Signal app on my Laptop and a defunct Axolotl on my phone.
I would rather refrain from trying to re-register Axolotl again for fear of breaking my desktop setup again. So I'd rather wait for good news in the Axolotl thread ;-)
