#Signal apparently requires opening Signal on the phone from time to time without stating the reason. This is version 7.82.0 of Desktop and I don't have Signal on the phone at the moment. "Learn more" leads here: https://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/9021007554074-Open-Signal-on-your-phone-to-keep-your-account-active
I previously thought this only happened during events like PQC migration. Mostly documenting it for myself here. -

@link2xt
it does deactivate your account on #signaldesktop eventually. or at least it did a few years back. at least they have advance warnings for it now.
