Feature request: Notifications about failed backups

(and now I can't login to cloudron.io either to remind myself if I have any others I can't remember about right now...)
Managed to reset password and get back in. Seems it is just the 4 Clourdons I have at present. But 3 out of 4 are not backing up properly and none of them are getting proper backup failure notifications.

Why is this not happening? I think it's likely a regression in 7.4.1 but not sure.
Although one of the Cloudrons that hasn't backed up for the last two days is actually still on 7.3.6 because it's on a VPS that doesn't have enough disk space to be able to update to 7.4
-
Well, one of them, that hadn't successfully backup up since 15 April just successfully backed up as scheduled. So not so panicked as I was a few minutes ago. But still mighty concerned that there have been zero notifications about the backup not working for multiple days in a row....
-
But another (the 7.3.6 one), which started backing up as scheduled at 11pm UK time tonight (and literally only has Uptime Kuma installed) is still stuck at 26% over two hours later.

But I stopped it and manually started it again and it very quickly successfully completed. But again, still concerned as to how/ why there were backup failures that didn't trigger notifications.

@jdaviescoates I have/had similar issues, never got a notification via email. I now check every two days my 4 Cloudrons manually.

I get an email notification after 3 continuous failed backups.
To be clear, in my case I mostly wasn't getting any notifications (i.e. even in the dashboard), let alone email notifications.
As many have previously requested, I would like email notifications after just 1 failed backup, not 3.
TBH I really don't know why you removed them after pretty much just one person (from what I could tell) found they were get too many emails (which imho just means they don't know how to manage their email with filters and folders or whatever).
Lots of people have since asked for them back and we've been waiting for ages.
In short, we need more/ better options for notification management. Some people want emails about everything all the time, others almost never want an email about anything. Cloudron should fulfil the needs of both groups
Thanks in advance for sorting this

Agree that this simply needs to be more customizable. We just went for 3 as a compromise of not having the ability to customize
