I’ve raised a few concerns here: > [@Push Notification Gateway Pricing](https://forums.rocket.chat/t/push-notification-gateway-pricing/3044): > > Dear Rocket.Chat users, Our open source platform has come a long way since the start of our journey in 2015. With usage numbers now in the millions, we are facing increasing operational costs. We have discussed ways to soften the load this causes on our resources, while at the same time ensuring that the service we provide remains fully available to the community at the same high standard we always strive to maintain. Therefore, in order to mitigate some of these costs, we have decided to make… A primary one is where notifications get sent when I am at my desktop and autoaway is set. I don’t have Rocket in focus very often - I check periodically - so I get a notification to my mobile even though it isn’t required. Multiply that by a few users and suddenly you get dozens of unrequired notifications. Yes, I could set it to mentions only, but then people are going to be mentioning me every 5 minutes if they aren’t sure where I am, ‘just in case’. And then if I am out, and the Rocket app doesn’t have focus, I may get a dozen notifications when maybe I only need one. As I mention in the original post. 1000 messages per month. 30 or so messages a day between even 6 users is just 5 notifications per device per day. Unfortunately this is going to apply to the vast majority of users, not just the ‘20% of large users’. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.rocket.chat/t/push-notification-pricing/3006)._
