Issue with SMS Export
But, the note also only concerns my project's built-in XML export function, not the one used in the instructions you link. I do plan on getting the XML export function working again in the near future, but for now, if you have a problem you should really open an issue at https://github.com/alexlance/signal-message-exporter/issues.

All the history disappeared after transferring from device with history to an empty.
At the very least there are tools that allow you decrypt your chat backups and export them in JSON. So, even if importing the backup doesn't work you still have access to your message history, which is better that nothing.

For all non-techy and those whose export failed.
Go to https://github.com/alexlance/signal-message-exporter click the green code button at the top and download zip, extract it to desktop.

The xz sshd backdoor rabbithole goes quite a bit deeper
Moxie's reasons for disallowing Signal distribution via F-droid always rang a little flat to me ( https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Android/issues/127 ). Lots of chatter about the supposedly superior security model of Google Play Store, and as a result fewer eyes independently building and testing the Signal code base. Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but independent and reproducible builds seem like a net positive for everyone. Always struggled to understand releasing code as open source without taking advantage of the community's willingness to build and test. Looking at it in a new light after the XZ backdoor, and Jia Tan's interactions with other FOSS folk.

Signal v7.0.0 with phone number privacy
There's nothing on Signal blog as of yet, but Signal's git repository was tagged with v7.0.0 yesterday and we can see from the commit history since the previously tagged version (v6.74.4) that there will be a setting to hide one's phone number [1], as well as disabling the previous default behavior of advertising that one is on Signal to all their contacts already using it [2].

What are you shocked people are still doing nowadays?
Signal works the same but without the user tracking from Meta/Facebook. Many people use it as well but I'm surprised that a majority sticks to WhatsApp.

Apple Just Confirmed Governments Are Spying on People’s Phones With Push Notifications
Sadly yes: Looks like an open issue 13290 for Signal, sounds like they were/are indeed still interacting through google's push notification service, wat, and per a link at that issue it was a chore for Tutanota to break away once they realised it was a problem some years ago (though at least they thought about it years ago? wtf Signal...)
