UnifiedPush support

Opened this issue · 1 comments

Please add support for UnifiedPush push notification protocol/standard.

We need push notifications, but we don’t want use centralized online service that read we all notifications, like Android has Google Firebase Messaging Service and iOS has Apple Push Notification service. UnifiedPush protcol is the solution for this. UnifiedPush is open protocol/standard for connection between online service (Application Server) → notification service (Push Server) and notification service’s client (Push Distributor) → application (End User Application). It enables the user to choose the service through he receives his push notifications.

Especially GNU/Linux on mobile is very big need of push notifications and with UnifiedPush we can fix it.

Or something pub-sub based, like ntfy does.
