The official announcement was mentioned in Matrix's blog post:

Next release 0.4.2 should also be published on F-Droid with push support using UnifiedPush.

In other news, thanks to Joshua, NeoChat now supports push notifications based on UnifiedPush.

Interestingly, the Element X issue regarding implementing UnifiedPush, has not been updated, and there is no related merge request that I can find. NeoChat appears to have their changes buried in merge requests.

Shouldn't this use more battery? When i switched to Lineage my battery lasted longer 😅

Some say "yes, by a lot". In my experience a 10 seconds fetch rate on apps costs only a few percentages of battery per charge if the fetch is reasonably sane. Checking 75 podcast feeds with thousands of episodes every 10 minutes isn't sane.

I have tested and got better battery on Lineage/Clean ROMs as compared with stock as well. I put it down to bloat and spyware constantly running in the background with elevated priviledge. 🤷‍♂️
