Webhook only makes sense if you don't care a single bit about missing updates. If not, it's deeply flawed.

A pull model (polling, long-polling, SSE, etc) is strictly superior for synchronisation. You just can't "miss" updates, can restart from the beginning again and reinterpret past events in a different light, the client goes at its own pace, etc.

To expand on icebraining's comment, you can use weebhooks as notifications to poll.

Luckily they aren't incompatible, you can take advantage of both.
