So I finally came across a proprietary app that has broken notification support on my degoogled phone and there don’t seem to be any alternative ways (like what Telegram FOSS or Signal do) to get it working. I tried a solution called ntfy but it didn’t work. So is there a way to get it working now (preferably without utilizing Firebase because Google can read it all you know)?

I expected this question. My answer is “sorry can’t tell because privacy.”

This is a very meta answer to give 😄

Short answer I think you may be out of luck. Firebase/MicroG, websocket (must be included as a part of the app itself by the developer) or some NTFY workaround are really the only options that I’m aware of at this point.

And you just expect us to find out what the app is via crystal ball and cards, right?

But why do you want to know it? I gave technical details which should have a lot of information about the problem. But if you really need the name, the app is called deleted.

Because all apps work differently, use different modules and there’s a million different way a dev can code something to do the exact same thing. Without knowing the app, it’s impossible for anyone to give you an informed answer. Even the same app, from girhub vs the play store, is codes different to some level.

Having said that, maybe this could help: https://github.com/jr1221/ntfy_discord_bot
