if you uninstalled GMS, than you have no choice, it's Molly for you.
can't understand people who complain about privacy standards of Signal, yet they have GMS sitting at the core of everything their phone does.
No? Signal on their official app works perfectly without any Google apps or Play Services installed, including notifications, I use it daily on my deGoogled phone. I don't know where this misinformation is coming from.
from experience. i tried to re-register signal after degoogling my phone and couldn't. I already had Molly in my test list, so i tried and i was back online.
maybe signal has to be installed without gms for the configuration to work?
if that's misinformation (i will trust you), i'm sorry and i'll keep it to myselves
do you have microG instead of gms?
I have MicroG
