ntfy is a simple HTTP-based pub-sub notification service. It allows you to send notifications to your phone or desktop via scripts from any computer, and/or using a REST API.

    If all you need is to get a notification on your phone, you can use web browser Notification API for free. All you need is a https web server with properly configured certificates and DNS entry, which you can also get for free.

    So they reinvented MQTT?

      Thanks, i did not know about MQTT! (https://mqtt.org/ for others like me) Looks great, at first glimpse harder to use, but i will give it a honest shot.

        ntfy appears to have the advantage of being easily usable with generic webhooks, whole MQTT is a bit more mature and featureful.

          The thing is on stupid phones you have to install a separate app, that lowers too much the adoption

            are there any notifications that don’t come from separate apps? System notifs perhaps, but one could argue they come from the “system apps”. I figure this system is specifically designed for personalised notifications from things one administer independently. Such as backups, home-server monitoring, sovereign home appliances etc… I’m not codelitrary enough to figure out whether this can be built in to a 3rd party app, but i imagine it to be possible but would require a server somewhere eitherway. Kind of like NextcloudServices offers (Simply fetch Nextcloud notifications on devices without Google Play services) https://f-droid.org/packages/com.polar.nextcloudservices/

            Otherwise the closest thing would be leveraging the browser notification API. Still an app, but at least one that most users have installed (see https://fed.dyne.org/comment/53589)

              Well there are some apps that use it, like one for Lemmy I have a couple of them!

                ah yes, ametyst also (nostr client, that’s how i found out about it) I guess what i wondered was, to what extend it would be possible to integrate the system inside an app, without having the user install an extra app…

    This is quite expensive compared to SimplePush.
