That's an interesting, feature, if you are popular you would receive dozens of notifications at once, but still it's doable
Push notifications are cool and all, but they are part of what makes social media so addicting. What if, instead of push notifications, you could get a daily or weekly email with your notifications? Might be a healthier way to interact than feeling like you always need to immediately check your phone to see what the latest alert was about.
That said, I wouldn't mind seeing this done in a more Nostr-native way.
nostr:npub1v3tgrwwsv7c6xckyhm5dmluc05jxd4yeqhpxew87chn0kua0tjzqc6yvjh would it be possible to have a few options for when Pokey sends push notifications? 1. Real-time (current practice), 2. At a specific time each day. 3. On a specific day each week.
If so, I would love to be able to subscribe to notifications for community relays' calendar, chat, and threads events in Pokey, too. Or get really crazy and allow Pokey to subscribe to a custom feed... Then users could, say, create a custom feed that was based on a kind 30000 list, but only showed long-form notes, and Pokey could alert daily if any of those npubs had written an article.

I think the ideal is some kind of digest. You know, "this note got 87 reactions and 12 replies, want to go read them?"
I see, I think a digest is even simpler, thanks! Good food for thought 🙂
True. Would be more ideal if Pokey sent one "summary" type of notification if either daily or weekly were selected, but not sure if that's possible. One that just says, "You received X replies and X zaps and X reactions today/this week." Tapping on it woud take the user to Pokey's Notifications tab where they can be reviewed in detail.
If that's not possible, I think it is still fine. Any time I have more than a few notifications from Pokey, Android groups them together so I can either expand them to review each, or dismiss them as a group.
Nice idea, I'll think about it thanks!
