Hydroxide was specifically created as a free replacement for the official Proton Mail Bridge, so no, it doesn’t require a subscription
Comment on Ntfy.sh Protonmail notifications
oranki@lemmy.world 4 months agoI think it does require a paid account, Hydroxide basically acts like the official Proton bridge.
I haven’t actually tested with a free account, so there’s a chance it does work. When you run the auth command (which is the same as upstream Hydroxide), it will probably throw an error.
If you have a free account and try this out (or Hydroxide), please report how it goes back here, I’ll add a note to the readme. Upstream doesn’t seem to mention this in their repo either.

Currently, I only have a free account there. I tried Hydroxide first, and I had no problem logging in. I was also able to fetch some emails. I will try hydroxide-push as well later.

In that case hydroxide-push will work too, which is good news!
Just note that the IMAP, SMTP and CardDav functions have been stripped out from this push version. If there’s interest to have those too, a different version with the push stuff added on top of full Hydroxide could be made. It will require a bit of time to develop.
The scope of hydroxide-push is only push notifications for now.
