Let’s create a comprehensive list of open-source software that everyone should know about!
I had no issue with signal (except phone number verification) but according to my family members signal uses a lot of ram and battery. Non of them have Google play services. XMPP doesn’t use that much resources and it’s simple, no unnecessary bloat.
Sure all family members dont have play services…
Also bullshit that Signals drains ram or battery, i wouldnt notice and never heard this before.
I heard that before too. On calls, especially video calls
Maybe Signal drains battery when it can’t use Google Play Services for notifications and falls back to keeping a connection alive to Signal servers instead?
Yeah thats the reason.
Im running grapheneos with molly foss (signal fork). I tried both notification deamons, Websocket and Selfhosted UnifiedPush. Both dont drain my battery at all.
