@governorkeagan@infosec.exchange With UnifiedPush properly setup, Molly doesn't need to run in the background unrestricted. Instead your UnifiedPush distributor (I use ntfy) runs in the background to pickup push notifications for all apps. When it gets one, it'll wake up the app to do something.
I don't think I've changed any of the settings around password reminders. I keep all those secure in my password manager, so I'm not particularly concerned about forgetting them.

@governorkeagan@infosec.exchange I should mention that given Signal doesn't natively support UnifiedPush there is a second component which needs to run persistently on some other computer. It's what persistently listens for new Signal activity for you and then converts it into a UnifiedPush notification to be sent to your phone. I've got a home server I run that on, so that's not a particularly big deal for me. But certainly adds a level of complexity around it.
