I'd really like to know how Sunbird/Nothing Chats are doing iMessage on Android, allegedly completely locally and with end-to-end encryption, without breaking Apple's EULA or sth

@noiob probably the same way Beeper and such do it: by having like macOS VMs/devices connect to your iCloud account and grabbing/sending the message.

Unless they reverse engineered the API whilst keeping the encryption

@Eramdam they're literally claiming "no servers" and encryption on your device

Follow

@Eramdam yeah that's always an option
