Thanks for the tips and discussion! Fdroid was incredibly slow to work with, but I have installed osmand with some additions and found that it can possibly replace Gaia. It has a photo layer option and many other things that ate helpful. I will need to spend more time with it, but I feel good about it!

Thanks for pushing me in this direction.

I am using websocket and don’t see a large battery drain. Am I missing something by not setting up unified push?

Thanks for the encouragement! The one person is a key player in that network so maybe! Hard to fight with the apple folks.

That sounds great! So far, after five years, I have won a single person. Even back when Signal worked as a more regular messenger. Happy for you 🙂

I have accepted no RCS. I miss some of the features, sure, but until I can get more than one person to use something like signal I’ll stick with insecure SMS thru a FOSS provider I guess.

What about swappa? I just replaced my 3a with a 7a. I would consider donating it to the cause but had thought about doing something with it.

I don’t really understand the interface, but I hit “power” and was watching some music videos from 1994 and I appreciate you sharing this ❤️
