It's 2024, I've built hybrid apps that allowed for push notifications on iOS, Safari has native Web Push, and I still don't understand how push notifications work.
Why can't some Android apps receive push notifications without Google Services? Why should push notifications have to go through a third party? Why does this suck so bad? How do we fix this?
