Signal - FOSS - Issues / Questions When Sharing Location with OpenStreetMap
Haven't used Signal FOSS, but as it happens Molly bas just implemented OSM support, perhaps when it lands you might have better luck with it. Anyway, is there no issue tracker for that fork? I tried looking in their repo and found it disabled

Signal discontinuing SMS support.
Yeah I followed that whole story. Since then some forks have been created that do not care what Signal Foundation thinks about using their servers. Molly and Signal-FOSS for example, both compatible to regular Signal. Those two forks will not keep SMS support, Molly never had it, and Signal-FOSS will most likely drop it because they think it's too much work to keep it while staying compatible and up to date. I hope there is going to be another fork specifically dedicated to keeping SMS support. We'll see.

SMS app supporting Google RCS
Maybe they had outdated info from when the server software was not updated for a long time. Or, it's regarding the dependencies on closed-source Google Mobile Services and Firebase libraries, though those can be removed... and have been in this fork.
