Describe the bug A push notification was randomly sent at 7:16AM EST on 2022/07/20 containing "Test from pliablepixels to see if legacy FCM works" with no further context or official project/maintainer acknowledgement/communication.

Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem. image

Additional context The concern in the userbase that I've discussed this push notification with has been that users do not know if this was an official test, an accidental user broadcast sent to all zmNinja users, or an indication of a compromise of the project / supporting services. I believe a simple tweet from the @zoneminder account or a comment here would put concerns to ease. Thank you!

It was sent by Pliable Pixels the author of zmNinja to confirm if Legacy FCM would still work with the last release of zmNinja he made. I believe the answer was no when tested from ZMES, whereas this test was sent directly from his Google FCM account. AKA the same place all your notifications have been coming from in the past.
