Adds experimental PostgreSQL support

reviewed and heavily tested over 2-3 weeks
This makes me a bit uneasy, especially as ntfy is an internet facing service.
Am I overreacting or do you all share the same concern?
I switched to Gotify when I ran into an issue where ntfy would delete old api tokens when creating more than 20. Only thing missing in Gotify is UniversalPush, other than that it feels actually more solid than ntfy to me.

Im quite hesistant with idea of AI writing my code. At one point your AI wont help you with fixing certain bug and you will have to go through all of this AI slop. Not to mention you deploy debt code.
fuck
Well now I certainly am glad I didn’t migrate from Gotify as I’ve been slowly planning.
Send push notifications to your phone or desktop using PUT/POST
I’m sorry, how many lines of code for that?
if you want to send one notification from your desktop to your phone, it’s easy. but from any device to (m)any other, with guaranteed delivery and no doubles? shit gets complicated.
So it’s a little more than just sending notifications, then.
Damn, I guess I’ll stick to the older release for now. Hopefully a viable alternative/fork comes around.
I have the same concern..
No thumb down reaction emoji 🤔
In reality how big of a risk it currently is? I just started to use it just for fun and personal projects. If previous version didn’t have security vulnerabilties then then there is no rush to update or am i missing something?
I meant to ask already: what is the actual technical difference between mqtt and ntfy? For me it feels pretty similar technique, just one is used for push service and the other not. So it feels like reinventing the wheel. Maybe somebody here can enlighten me?
I think the main difference is that services adapt to mqtt while nfty adapts to services to send the msgs. Also, nfty offers push notifications on your Android device.
What’s the difference between ntfy (android app) and ntfy.sh?
Ntfy.sh is the hosted version. Hosted by the author. Ntfy (android, ios) is the app that you use as a client.
I’ve never used ntfy.sh
I’ve only used Ntfy app for Universal Push that some apps need, and they recommend ntfy. Does this affect the app then? Ah, if so, what alternative can I use for just that purpose?
Well, Telegram does the something for free.
Telegram does the thing for your sweet juicy data
