#ntfy has fully gone AI Slop.... schade ich mochte das Projekt. :(

https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/releases/tag/v2.18.0

Sei dem release gibts alle paar Stunden en Hotfix

Release v2.18.0 · binwiederhier/ntfy

This is the biggest release I've ever done on the server. It's 14,997 added lines of code, and 10,202 lines removed, all from one pull request that adds PostgreSQL support. The code was written by ...

GitHub
It figures. I have been running both #ntfy and #gotify for years, just too lazy to fix up the last couple of items and pick one. Last week I settled on #ntfy instead of #gotify, got the last couple items switched over, etc. The next day, they proudly take in a huge shitpile of LLM code. "Well-tested!" Then hotfix after hotfix..

Are there any third options? This seems like the sort of space that
#OSS should shine but somehow doesn't.. I just want a decent notification app.

I can't help it, but I'm starting to hate #ntfy.

This is the biggest release I've ever done on the server. It's 14,997 added lines of code, and 10,202 lines removed, all from one pull request that adds PostgreSQL support.From one single PR. I would have rejected this without even reviewing a single line of code.The code was written by Cursor and Claude, [...]Ok, this explains everything. And of course it went wrong:Fix invalid UTF-8 in HTTP headers (e.g. Latin-1 encoded text) causing PostgreSQL insert failures and dropping entire message batchesValid charsets in HTTP request headers leading to failing DB operations. I don't know what adjectives to use to describe this predictable failure.

Very cool.

The
#Android release of #Aria the #Sharkey client supports #NTFY for instant #PUSH notifications.

Setup is super easy, copy what's on screen and paste in the linked text box.

Well done to anybody involved in the development of any of the components, they all work great together!

SIGH.

I just read about the ntfy AI refactor drama in the selfh.st newsletter. A recent ntfy update effectively wiped my config and put the service into unauthenticated mode, so I was already looking for alternatives, but I guess I'll have to accelerate that.

This is exhausting. It's like so many devs don't actually enjoy what they do, and I guess they never did.

Today I read the brief synopsis of ntfy Android. I saw there that via linux the control and operation is fairly simple & straightforward

I went to the site and started reading.

ntfy via linux is easy to use

  • simple HTTP PUT/POST commands are used

sh

curl -d "Backup successful 😀" ntfy.sh/mytopic

a.out

ntfy publish mytopic

"Backup successful 😀"

HTML

POST /mytopic HTTP/1.1
Host: ntfy.sh

Backup successful 😀

javascript

fetch('https://ntfy.sh/mytopic', {
method: 'POST', // PUT works too
body: 'Backup successful 😀'
})

golang

http.Post("https://ntfy.sh/mytopic", "text/plain",
strings.NewReader("Backup successful 😀"))

python

requests.post("https://ntfy.sh/mytopic",
data="Backup successful 😀".encode(encoding='utf-8'))

php

file_get_contents('https://ntfy.sh/mytopic', false, stream_context_create([
'http' => [
'method' => 'POST', // PUT also works
'header' => 'Content-Type: text/plain',
'content' => 'Backup successful 😀'
]
]));

I try to setup mollysocket with my own ntfy-server, but molly keeps giving me a "connection add.. " to https://ntfy.sh instead of my own ntfy-server.

I'm trying to run this in air gappeed mode.

Anyone?

EDIT: I have made som progress. The url is correct now.
If I have the ntfy-app open on my phone and I send a test notification with curl I see that the app makes a blink, but molly does not show any notification. Molly says UnifiedPush is OK.

EDIT2: It's actually worse with Molly + UnifiedPush than Signal with Google Play Services.
I'm back on Signal with Google Play Services and have written a forum post to see if anyone has any clue.

ntfy.sh | Push notifications to your phone or desktop via PUT/POST

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.

ntfy.sh

Ich habe in der APP 'ntfy' einen einzelnen Eintrag, kann ihn aber nicht zuordnen. Ich sehe nur die kryptische und vermutlich nutzerspezifische Themen-URL. Wie finde ich heraus, welche meiner Apps ntfy diesen Kanal für UnifiedPush benutz?

Unterstützt tusky ntfy?
