Maybe not. Although there's this guy: https://eladnava.com/pushy-a-new-alternative-to-google-cloud..., it seems like his library doesn't work very well after Nougat.

From Android 6 on, Doze just terminates apps running in background after a while. The only network access that is allowed is GCM.
Which causes the entire issue.
I wrote a complaint to the EU privacy official responsible for them and the EU antitrust committee.
