Push Notifications: Sailthru Vs Firebase

Sailthru is more expensive, has worse documentation, has worse React-Native support, has smaller community, the SDK we are using only has 2 Github ⭐️'s.

And it was still the right choice for us. Why? Queries.

Sailthru's killer feature is the ability to query user properties on any push notification message. Wat? In Sailthru we can send messages to a group of users like "send this message to any user who has X, Y OR Z".

What, that's it? Surely you can do that with Firebase?

To be continued...
