Or maybe it's the governments dislike of VPNs being used to bypass surveillance

Gotcha. I misunderstood. I didn't think it would be just that, because of course if they have your phone they have the contents. Signal encrypts end to end, but if they have the end device of course it isn't encrypted.
I know about the setting. Why are you saying that information is sent to Google's servers? As far as I have found, that information is only stored locally on your phone
Edit: If this is just about the fact it's on the phone locally, of course if they have your actual phone they can see it. Signal is end to end encrypted, but it isn't go to be encrypted on each end, otherwise you couldn't read messages. Them getting your actual phone is very different from them intercepting the communication without you knowing
Source? I am not seeing anything about that. The only problem I have seen on Android is when applications use firebase for notifications, which is most play store apps to be fair, just no FDroid apps or some privacy preserving apps
You also don't need to do this on Android unless you are concerned about random people seeing the messages on your screen. Signal on Android does not use Google's push notification service
As I already replied om one of your other comments:
It’s not because of push notifications. the message is not sent to firebase, just a signal that the app should do a refresh.
Is is 100% because of firebase. Here is an example payload from firebases official document:
{
"message":{
"token":"bk3RNwTe3H0:CI2k_HHwgIpoDKCIZvvDMExUdFQ3P1...",
"notification":{
"title":"Portugal vs. Denmark",
"body":"great match!"
}
}
}

Notification history is purely local to the device. It is not sent to any servers.

And where do those data centers get their money? Without end customers to sell to, there is no markets. If all jobs are taken by robots, then people will not have work and will not get paychecks to buy stuff. Basically the only option is true socialism and everyone just gets their government checks. But I also don't really see that happening
The catch is "in sunlight" that was omitted from the tweet:
Depending on their launch date, the crew of NASA’s Artemis II mission may become the first humans to see regions of the lunar far side, like Mare Orientale, in sunlight.

I guess their logic for the tweet is they technically couldn't see it since it wasn't lit? I do know they are capturing information in new details they didn't have before because of the lighting. And I also imagine the dark side of the mook was essentially completely dark
This is not always the same on Android. Any app from FDroid will not use Google's push notification service because it is proprietary, meaning it violates the rules for FDroid. Signal does not use Google's notification service
It's worth noting apps can avoid this on Android: https://tuta.com/blog/google-push-alternative#alternatives-to-google-push
