Google have suspended Element in the Play Store without notifying us; we're reaching out to find out what's going on. Apologies for the inconvenience; in the interim there's https://f-droid.org/en/packages/im.vector.app/ but it's a few versions behind. We'll post updates here.

I saw it mentioned that f-droid version won't be able to do notifications. Anybody know regarding that?

I use the f-droid version, and have been getting notifications.

oh good to know

You get notifications, but there is some sort of difference yes. Maybe it uses a more powerhungry way of fetching/pushing notifications?

yeah it might have to resort to polling
