This is incorrect. There is an open source reimplementation of Google Play Services (https://microg.org/) and Signal works beautifully with it.

And wherefrom can you get Signal except for the Google Play store? I was looking for it a while ago to install on my phone but only found two other projects which were threatened by moxie and then shut down.

I compile my own binaries. Not too bad actually.

So the Signal APK does NOT depend on the Google Cloud Messaging library anymore, which pulls in 40k LOC of analytics?
