[Disccussion] How does memmy push notifications work? (ie does it use polling or websockets)

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 😉
