Tips on sending batch notifications to a large group of users at once?

Hi team, for context - I'm storing user ExpoPushTokens in my users table in Convex. I was reading some of the docs on cron jobs in Convex and was wondering what the recommended approach would be to send daily notifications to a large group of users at once (doesn't have to be at exactly the same time). I was thinking I could make a call to fetch the users table (though I'd probably wanna do this in a paginated manner so I don't fetch too many items at once), get the Expo push tokens that way, and then make batched calls to the Expo service using an internal action.

Is this the recommended approach for a use case like this?

Hi @everyone with everything going on today I forgot to post on discord about our EU launch! We have a region in Dublin now! You can start using it immediately, even for folks on the free plan. https://news.convex.dev/we-finally-got-our-eu-visa/ Stay tuned for more regions but also stay tuned for more infra improvements where we improve latency for teams no matter where their servers are located. Just at the tip of the iceberg re all the optimizations we have lined up.
