Does this support staggering notifications over a period of time? We keep on running into infrastructure ceilings due to traffic spikes after particularly engaging notifications.

Is there notification personalisation, I couldn't see it mentioned in the docs?

Something like handlebars or liquid?

For now we only support text and images in notifications. I will look into adding buttons to notifications in the future.

Good point! Right now we retry the notifications max 3 times but you can change that variable. In the future I want to use something like batches to send notifications.
