How do you guys deal with notifications (lemm.ee)

So I'm developing a mobile client using React Native, where I'm utilizing Lemmy's messaging functionality as well. This makes it extremely crucial to have notification support (including push notifications).

How are you guys dealing with this problem? This is what I think an elegant solution could look like. We would need to achieve two things:

  1. Bring back websockets only for notifications by directly changing lemmy server side code.
  2. Find where the email notification code is at, and simply implement expo notifications there.

Whaddya think?
