  • Telegram-FOSS

    Unofficial, FOSS-friendly fork of the original Telegram client for Android

  • I use Telegram FOSS. They refuse to use firebase for notifications, so I forever have a message in my drawer that leads to this link:

    https://github.com/Telegram-FOSS-Team/Telegram-FOSS/blob/mas...

    I doubt it solves much but I like to think of it as a little poke in the eye.

  • TextSecure

    A private messenger for Android.

  • Fortunately, they did foresee this! The push notification only contains enough information to tell the phone that it should fetch the actual notification content from Signal's servers.

    Here's a Signal dev talking about it on the Signal-Android GitHub: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Android/issues/12961#iss...

    And similarly for Signal-iOS: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-iOS/issues/962#issuecomm...
