If I could choose, I would rather that this wasn't a requirement but rather an option. As it stands there is little that can be done about it (unless I open source my code and start publishing on F-droid).
- Andrew_nenakhov 5y agoEven that wouldn't help if you need some kind of background functionality that would require waking up the app from time to time, because push notifications won't work.
- MrDresden 5y agoYes your correct, there are plenty of headaches that come with publishing outside of the Play store. The least of them is open sourcing when going for one of the bigger alt stores F-droid.

- Andrew_nenakhov 5y agoNo. Btw they are called FCM now.
- h4waii 5y agoCan you elaborate on what exactly is stopping someone from hosting their own repository for F-Droid and publishing an app that uses FCM/GCM?
