Allow the user to choose whether to run notifications through fcm/apns for reliability, or through a background task for privacy. Background tasks are annoying, because capacitor's js runtime doesn't have websockets. So we would either have to implement native websockets on all platforms, or use a fetch/socket proxy. We could also do this the way Signal does and use silent notifications to wake the app up. This would be the most complex, but also probably the best balance.
