Notification? (lemmy.ml)

submitted 2 years ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Hello, how do you manager with notification?

I can't: neither from the browser (not even enabling them), nor from the two Android applications (Jerboa and Lemmur).

Of course, if I open the app or the browser, I see the notifications icon lit up, but without visiting it I can't find out that someone, for example, has answered me.

Are there any other methods that escape me?

Thanks!

Lemmur doesn't have the Google dependency to receive notifications because otherwise it would be shipped with proprietary software which means it wouldn't fit the criteria for publication in F-droid, there are ways to work around this as a developer but are hard to implement and drain a lot of battery. I don't know about Jerboa but I assume it's a very similar case.

Its most likely that neither of them implements native Android notifications at this time (but i'm not sure).

Yep this is correct.

As far as the lemmy-ui webclient tho, it should have notifications on all platforms as long as you clicked allow notifications for that site.
