#UnifiedPush

1 post1 participant0 posts today

Cool, Fennec is interested in #UnifiedPush support [1]

We will probably have it on Fennec before it gets upstream (if it does 🤞).

That means UnifiedPush will be available for "installable web applications". So we'll have push notifications with some new apps !

@davx5app
Really wonderful approach which I just learned about today. I'd really like to use #Davx5 #unifiedpush with my #nextcloud instance and #nextpush. However, the #davpush app seems not to be compatible with NC v31 yet. And in the bug tracker I read about possible incompabilities with upcoming v32.
So will this likely continue to be an issue that I won't be able to use it on the newest NC version for a while? Or are you guys maybe even working on an integrated solution?

My second #OpenBSD #port that got merged into the #ports tree: MollySocket [1]
Mollysocket is for every #Signal user that wants to ditch Google-dependent notifications.
Together with #Molly [2] you can be sure that notifications will only be routed over systems that you choose, using #UnifiedPush.

This OpenBSD port in particular comes with a useful README that should help you to get started quickly. Let's hope that it makes it into 7.7-release :)

@chewie By using Signal-FOSS or Molly-FOSS you just force the Signal app to use its WebSockets-based notification fallback mechanism. But if you have Play services installed and have granted them network permissions, you might as well just use FCM for notifications. It saves battery life compared to each app maintaining its own background network connection.

If you're using @mollyim you also have a third option for receiving notifications: @unifiedpush

But since Signal doesn't support it natively, you need a mollysocket server that receives the Signal notifications and translates them into UnifiedPush format. The mollysocket server is connected to your Signal account as a linked device, but it does not have your decryption keys. There are public instances of mollysocket like mollysocket.adminforge.de

The easiest and best way to get started with UnifiedPush (IMO) is the recently released Sunup distributor app.

@element

Notification of calls on Android phones using #UnifiedPush , seem to have been completely broken for many (all?) people since the move from version 1.5.28 to 1.5.30.

A bug was filed over a year ago. A number of people there say they can't get calls at all and even offer money for bugfix dev work, but so far no one from the team has even commented on it.

What info would help or can you recommend a dev to pay to work on this?
