So far, I like what I see. It's a small application, but I'm trying to figure out how push notifications work. Since I do not have Google Play Services and how often it will check for new feed updates

Getting push notifications working on a vanilla ROM is a very tricky thing. Unless they made a workaround (which requires the app constantly staying in the background that devs don't like apparently) it will not work properly. It's not the app's fault though

So far as I am able to tell, this app does not give me any kind of push notifications at all, even though it's supposed to. So I might have to ditch it for now.

I do not find any option for push notifications, the app also is not trying to register using microg. I am not sure why it is supposed to give push notifications tbh.

I just had a look at the description to make sure I wasn't crazy and yes it says right in the thing that article notifications are a thing but it is not registering with unified push and it is not manually checking every x minutes for notifications so I don't see how it has them.
