When not using Google Play services (e.g. GrapheneOS, LineageOS users), Signal can be a real battery drain. Molly with UnifiedPush on the other hand is extremely battery efficient.
Here’s how to set this up, using Nextcloud as the UnifiedPush provider.
Keyboard and mouse input for the phone is a gamechanger for me. Having a manipulatable window that I can drag and drop files to is super nice as well.
Also since Slay the Spire doesn’t have cross-saving and all my progress is on my phone I can play it without staring at my phone.
I guess I don’t really have a reason to access my phone via my computer. Everything I use has a desktop interface — Signal, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Telegram, my radio app, my podcasts app, Spotify, etc.
But it’s good to have alternatives if something comes up! Thanks for the tip!
