TLDR: signal content in Apple notification can be retrieved even after signal app deletion.

I saw from this reddit thread: Signal messages retrieved from iPhone after uninstalling app. : signal

Referencing this news article: Pretti Killing May Affect ICE Prairieland "Antifa Cell" Terrorism Trial

The mention of signal is in court documents here: March 10: Federal Trial Day 12 - Support the Prairieland Defendants

Signal chat evidence from Sharp’s device (Exhibit 158):
Messages were recovered from Sharp’s phone through Apple’s internal notification storage — Signal had been removed, but incoming notifications were preserved in internal memory. Only incoming messages were captured (no outgoing).

Thank you internet stranger. I'm going to do this but fuck me if I can get my family to change their settings. They don't even know they can create a poll.

Don't ask me. I made all of you admins do I don't have to answer questions like how do I make a poll. Click the + button. Yeah. The one on your fucking screen right now.

No grandpa. We are not trying to figure out who is trans. No popop none of are naxies (I hope)

Anyway, click the +. Right there. That is how you create a poll.
