I'm not familiar with real world home firewall behavior, but shouldn't you be able to leave a TCP connection open/idle with no keepalive for minutes if not hour

I'm not familiar with real world home firewall behavior, but shouldn't you be able to leave a TCP connection open/idle with no keepalive for minutes if not hours? I'm skeptical of the battery life argument around notification lockin, particularly when I see how much Android devices light up a pihole.
- int_19h 1y agoI don't claim to understand the specifics, but I was a heavy user of custom XMPP clients on early Android phones, and they did require a persistent notification to keep the app (and thus the connection) alive, which did translate to measurable battery impact. My understanding is that the built-in notification manager helps with this by multiplexing and batching everything.
