I'll be adding background messaging checking in the coming week. Cheers.

If Lemmy doesn't have push notifications, would this be bad for battery if enabled?

Not great, not terrible

Sync for Reddit had different time sets, I suppose the implementation will be similar, so you'd be able to adjust it in a way that it isn't fetching the notifications too often.

Looking forward to it! I've only realised just now that I have replies to my comments because I checked my inbox for the first time in 2 months 😅

It would help if there is a notification circle on the inbox icon in the sidebar too? I don't have the bottom bar as another commenter had shared as I prefer to use sidebar only.
