Push Notifications: how to do it? Amethyst doesn't have a server, so there nothing to push from.

Is it possible to sign up from push notifications from independent relays? Is it safe? 🤔

FYI: a push notification is simply an alert to the app that some new content is available. The push doesn't actually carry the content itself. Upon receiving, Android wakes the app up and the app needs to ping relays to download the new content and display as a notification.

The first thing I do with every app I install on my phone is turn off push notifications. Especially for social apps. I only want to engage when I'm ready.

That's your choice. Other might want to immediately react to private messages from family members.

That's a good point.

I like the idea that you could enable push notifications from certain relays.
