Push requires having a server to push those notifications. That requires having an entire Voyager server that stores your credentials and periodically checks for new notifications, sending them when it gets them.
Money, yes, but also an issue with having a third party server storing credentials.
I’m not super familiar with UnifiedPush, but it seems like you still need a server to send those notifications. Unless the Lemmy instances themselves start sending them, they have to come from somewhere.

Why not use UnifiedPush?
I think that’s what Lemmy is looking to add support for soonish.
