OpenPush Introducing a Free, Decentralized Push Messaging Framework for Android
Introducing OpenPush, a free, decentralized push messaging framework for Android, offering a more private and free solution for notifications through an open connection to the server.
- OpenPush is a free, decentralized push messaging framework for Android that aims to provide a more private and free solution for push notifications.
- The framework keeps an open connection to the server, which can be used to send updates to the client.
- The protocol is deliberately transparent to all users of the system, allowing for experimentation with different transport protocols.
- Matrix, XMPP, RocketChat, and Next Cloud are decentralized by design, allowing users to host their own instances.
- End-to-end encryption is planned to prevent operators from reading the content of messages.
- The open connection requires maintenance, which can be a problem.
- Running as a system service like MicroG could be a solution to the problem of keeping connections alive.
- The framework is still a work in progress, with an open API specification for the server part and an Android client implementation.
- The framework aims to provide a more private and free solution for push notifications, but it’s still facing challenges and is not yet ready for use.
