    That's a good point. Threema using standard libsodium cryptoboxes (iirc) makes this easier to integrate with than these Axolotl-like protocols, though Threema still uses a custom protocol to communicate chat messages so you'll have to implement that. Also, Wire has a bot API so you don't need to pretend to be a real client to integrate in a chat. https://github.com/wireapp/lithium/wiki

    Afaik Signal doesn't have that, there only seem to be third party implementations for bots.

    I either do not have this issue, or it doesn't show up for me on the battery usage page. Are you sure it is widespread?

    With that said, there is some work being done towards a FLOSS replacement for firebase [1]. Gotify can be used as a backend [2], among others ([3] too, I think). Not ready for prime-time, but almost, and development started pretty recently (mid-December).
