@protonmail Proton claims to be a privacy oriented company and yet their email app doesn’t show push notifications without Google Play Services means you will either have to use Google Play Services or live without push notifications (if you are using a degoogled phone). If Tutanota app could show push notifications without Google Play Services, it is definitely possible. What a joke!!
@SoulKeeper While we rely on Google Play Store services for push notifications, they are end-to-end encrypted. To stay private when using Proton Mail on an Android phone, we recommend trying some of these tips: https://proton.me/blog/android-privacy .
We are also working on a complete rewrite of our Android app, which will allow for the improved functionalities and features to be added.
I don’t think that’s true.
I get push notofications on my degoogled phone.

@jjffnn That’s because you are using MicroG which is a partial open source re-implementation of Google Play Services and uses GCM to show you push notifications (your ip address and hardware info is sent to Google through GCM). GrapheneOS doesn’t ship with any service that is dependent on Google products and I would like to use it that way.
