Attempting to add notifications to wasteof.mobile - dang, Firebase Cloud Messaging is difficult to work with. I’m going to have to have a central server that keeps track of all the app’s users and their unique messaging ID’s. Which means privacy policies have to be written. Snap.

The only official way to send Android notifications when an app is in the background is to use Google’s Firebase Cloud Messaging. Otherwise you have to constantly run a background service which is unreliable and not recommended.
Ik but that's a bad way to do it
What’s a bad way to do it?
You shouldn't have to register with a cloud service to send notifications, it should be like browser notifications
Oh yeah - well, that’s the standard for native mobile apps and it’s just the way things are…
