Great stuff - just didn’t spot it in the releases category topics - so guessing it’s on the internal roadmap for you guys.

All I can say is “keep up the awesome work”!!

I know Discourse is a massive code base compared to other open source Ember apps. The fact that the Discourse team work so hard to ensure the code base keeps up with the sometimes quite dramatic code changes in Ember is immensely pleasing.

I would actually be pleased to see Android notifications happen first - just to say there is no reason to delay it if you see Android being reasonable to implement (and it fits in your development schedule obviously).

I understand a unified story for both Android and iOS considered - but I can see avoiding installing an app as a positive thing. You don’t need to worry about some communities wanting a custom branded version etc. However a community having a specific custom branded app to them would likely promote the community - but it’s a big bag of worms in terms of iOS app approval process.

Thanks for providing such direct feedback on all these “wishes”! :allthethings:
