signal-runner

Container image for running signal-desktop on older systems that don't support latest versions of Electron framework.

This is pretty much a "because I can" experiment for my own learning and amusement, motivated by dislike of time-bombed software.

Usage

make signal-runner
docker-compose up

Use docker container prune to clean up stopped containers after exiting signal-desktop.

Restrictions

  • Clicking URLs doesn't open them in host web browser.
  • Tray icon doesn't work in some desktop environments.
  • UID and GID are hardcoded to 1000 and 100, respectively.
  • Sound doesn't work (but it can probably be configured).
