schizoidmanSession vs simplex or other alternatives?
Define your criteria for an ideal messenger. What do you need actually? What’s your security requirement?
Probably something that does not require a phone number while still using google firebase notification system? Basically a less buggy version of session messenger.
google firebase notification system
Why though? If a app has its own implementation this is a non issue really.
To save battery life I suppose. Also some phones may kill a background app even when told not to thus preventing messages from being received.
may kill a background app even when told not to
Most of the time this can disabled somewhere in the app permissions. i have done this for a couple of apps without much issue.
I have simplex notification service running 24x7. while rarely used, i never missed a message. Nor I feel it uses more battery that it can’t hold a day of use despite it running constantly in the background. I’m using S21FE btw.
