Just curious, how does Matrix solve this problem?

  Matrix is centralized, the server does all the heavy lifting.

    Matrix isn't centralized, though it's true servers do the heavy lifting for now (eventually you will be able to run the server on the clients)

      It's federated by centralized hubs. Go try to run your own matrix server and lmk how far you get before just using another platform. Oh btw, that really toxic server keeps raiding everything they find.

    But how does that solve getting notifications to a mobile device? Does the phone just poll the server all the time? Wouldn't that eat a lot of battery?

      The phone polls only one server, in p2p it will need to poll a good chunk of whole network.
