Hi guys quick question about memmy's push notifications. Is the backened relying on polling the lemmy api (at a call rate of one api call per second)?~~ Or is it connecting to lemmy instances via ~~websockets and relaying incoming websocket pushes?~~ (lemmy uses long polling not web sockets 🤦 )

Looking at the code I'm guessing its relying on a polling based solution (but I might be wrong).

Just curious 😉
