UnifiedPush

Paralino, an easy-to-use encrypted location sharing app can use UnifiedPush to notify your devices!

Interestingly, to our knowledge, this is the first proprietary application to support the protocol. However, this support is part of an effort to open up the clients.

@unifiedpush too bad it's not self hostable and open source.

@quaff @unifiedpush I never heard of #paralino. Is this worth a try? Is the project trustworthy?

@iak @unifiedpush I personally wouldn't share something as sensitive as location data unless the client is open source. To confirm that e2ee is soundly implemented.

I’ve only recently started using Paralino and I’m quite happy with it.

Congratulations!

It's a shame that #Paralino isn't open source, which makes it hard to trust its #e2ee credentials, but still a nice boost for UnifiedPush.

It really should be adopted as the standard for notifications, as it demonstrates that Google's infrastructure is not necessary. As I've understood it, there's zero need for developers to use Firebase, at least for notifications.

Now let's hope Paralino also opens up the servers, and goes FULLY open source.
