And another issue open for over 2 years that prevents people from degoogling even though Proton so often advertises as an alternative to google - the irony is dead apparently.

Imagine being so against google but then requiring google play services for notifications to work... only with Proton.

Still missing this...

I would have this too for all Proton Apps. Proton stands for privacy and should do this also in their Apps.

UnifiedPush can also fall back to Firebase.

Please, add notification support on degoogled profile. Thanks

Please implement this, the experience of using Proton Mail on degoogled Android phones is horrible otherwise (no notifications at all)

Lack of UnifiedPush makes the android app dramatically less useful since you might as well just wait until you are next at a desktop computer to use email if nothing is important enough to require notifications.

Using a polling system would be a decent fallback if Google Cloud Services (Firebase) is not available, but even better would be UnifiedPush.

As GrapheneOS becomes more and more popular with the other alternative phone OS's, I think it's really critical to do this. Proton saying so many things against Google and the big tech companies, but still using their notification services is not a good look.

I think Proton not only should support UnifiedPush on Android, but they should also be a push notification distributor for other apps supporting it.

The less relying on Google, the better.

Proton advertises as a de-googled alternative for Google suite, but it actually needs Google services to work properly.
No Google = no notifications. That doesn't sound good.

Looking to have support for UnifiedPush notifications, or similar ability to receive push notifications on Proton android apps.

This would vastly improve connectivity for users who opt not to use Google Services on their device, which is a growing number.

Similar projects like The Signal Foundation allow to push notifications/check servers at the cost of battery, which would be fine in this context as well.

Thank you for all you do

Proton push notifications are the only remaining reason to keep Google Play services on my device. Cutting that tether would be a relief.

I would really appreciate it if this could be implemented. I hate the fact that Google Cloud Messaging is the dominant notification solution for developers. Please implement UnifiedPush!!
