DeGoogled phones don't have Firebase push. Makes life a little rough, but do what you gotta do.

Telegram and Signal get notifications regardless. Amethyst now has Unified push capabilities. You can host Unified Push on your own Nextcloud.

Nextcloud Services app on Andrpid can poll your server every 5 seconds or so. This seems to be the only way to get your self-hosted Nextcloud Talk to get notificatipns. 

 For sure. No Google services on my phone. Wont stop the people I message from having their nitification with Google or Apole though. It wont really matter what we do if others dont as well. 

 True. I've been saying this for a whole.

Having a DeGoogled phone is like being the only person in a swimming pool not pissing in the water while everyone else is peeing. 

 Also Google Tensor closed source.... 

 Nokia flip phone it is then lol 

 The new flip phones run Googled Android, and even if it don't, if they have Bluetooth and/or hot spot the Google and iPhones will detect them and report your location to Big Tech  

 Hmm, maybe just having your family all have satellite phones then? Honestly it seems like you basically have to take yourself back to the stone age to enjoy the privacy that people in the 80s used to enjoy 

 Some Linux phones have physical switches for bluetooth, wifi and cell modems.
