F-Droid release

[DrNion]

Would it be possible to create a version which can be released on F-Droid?
I know that this means without any Google Service dependencies or firebase.
But that effort would please a big part of the open-source community :)

we can do this but we need to find an alternative for push notifications OR remove it completely
currently we use firebase for the push notifications of authentication when a user logs in
