  The most noticeable change in behavior would actually be lack of push notifications. At least by default - you can set up push without Google (like with UnifiedPush), but not all apps support that.

    I dislike being bothered if i’m not actively using the device, so that’s a plus for me.

      I only recently got pushes working on this phone and very happy to have them again - but I absolutely get this. I only have them on in a few places, so they’re convenient and not distracting - only on personal messages and on some chats I want to keep an eye on.

      you can just silence all the notifications, and still know which messaging app out of the 5 has new messages, and whether you got emails, etc

        I mean, sms app and calendar do that without push, the mail app too if i enabled it, Fluffychat too and on Voyager i want no push. F-Droid sometimes bothers me with updates. Nothing amiss.

    the modt noticable change is when the developer built all functionality around every kind of firebase service, and didn’t care to handle the case when they are not available
