Why is the source code not available in the repository? As far I know, the GitHub ToS don't allow for such use.

I'm tired of having to correct people, but I will do it anyway.

Disagree, it serves to illustrate the same kind of monopoly google has one push notifications.

This is wrong. If you look up the definition for monopoly, you will realize it is false. At worst, it's a duopoly. If we exclude Huaweii Push, etc.

UnifiedPush is not a push service, it is a distributor. It is a proxy for push services, it does not send out its own notifications.

That is also wrong. Idk how you got the idea of it being a "proxy".

"UnifiedPush is a decentralized push notification system that lets you choose the service you want to use. It’s designed to be privacy-friendly, flexible, and open — making it perfect if you want control over your push notifications."

I think this can be overkill depending on your threat model, I personally went with Android profiles to seperate things.

Please avoid using the term "custom ROM", use preferably "Android Distribution" (is also the term used by LineageOS themselve) as ROM is inaccurate technically speaking.

It is. You have no idea how much power it has. It's like calling Chat Control by its original name which makes it seem totally harmless.

Sideloading is objectively not the right term. It's "installing".

RCS is off-topic.

Regarding Push, there is UnifiedPush which has already seen a wide adoption, e.g. Matrix. That's also the one used by Nfty. It's free and opensource and can be used by anyone.

We might want to encourage people to stop using the term "sideloading" and instead say "installing" because that's what it is; using a different term for it makes it seem unordinary and unintended.
