  • Cam you share a good selfhosted software similar to OneSignal or other push notifications services?

  • Most used selfhosted services in 2022?
    Been looking for something for push notifications for a while now. How is ntfy working out for you? Have you ever used gotify? Source: over 1 year ago
  • UnifiedPush: A decentralized, open-source push notification protocol
    You can self host a Gotify server (single file executable, web interface), install the app, set it to connect to the server on the local network. Sending a message is as easy as a curl to the server. It will show up in the apps. https://gotify.net/ https://github.com/gotify/android The problem is that there is no iOS app. You could use the browser there but maybe... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
  • Ntfy.sh – Send push notifications to your phone via PUT/POST
    I was adding a new application (i.e. a topic) to on my own instance today. Gotify is Go binary to run with very little configuration. It has an Android app to get somewhat realtime notifications on the phone. Probably an iOS one too. It also has a pretty extensive REST API to manage the instance and a management web app. https://gotify.net/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
  • Ntfy.sh – Send push notifications to your phone via PUT/POST
    Another good open-source self hosted alternative is Gotify. https://gotify.net. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
  • Galaxy Watch with Pixel running GrapheneOS?
    I do know someone who used a regular device to pair the watch, then used the watch standalone with another phone, using Gotify to relay phone Notifications to watch (sideloaded app on watch). Watch has it's own eSIM so can forward calls from phone to watch number, as well as forward SMS. Source: over 1 year ago
  • I finally finished my guide to set up UPS Discord notifications + clean shut downs on Ubuntu server
    Gotify is made for this. You could also just use home assistant if you have that set up. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Show HN: MyNotifier – Simple Notifications
    I'm a fan of the open source project Gotify. I self host it on a small cloud server. https://gotify.net/ Hard to say this closed source app is better than the multiple open source competitors with their own mobile apps. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
  • Looking for tips / recommendations for new selfhoster
    Gotify for notifications. I first used a self hosted Rocket.Chat which I deleted once they made it necessary to register with their cloud for notifications to work. Then a short time using a Telegram Bot and after that I used a Discord webhook until I found Gotify. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Pushbullet, but self hosted (Or self hosted E-Mail?)
    I haven't used it myself, but https://gotify.net looks interesting. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Recommendations for an intranet only (unfederated) chat, for notifications and 2 users
    There is gotify. If ok with going not fully self-hosted, telegram bots are good and simple. You can just use curl to send a message to telegram. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Trying to find an application to send notifications to my android
    Gotify might be what you're looking for (https://gotify.net). Source: about 2 years ago
  • I made a containerised PushBullet & YouTube-dl helper app that lets you share a video to PushBullet for automatic downloads
    Https://gotify.net/ perhaps? From a quick glance looks like it could be a viable alternative. Source: about 2 years ago
  • Any selfhosted reminder / notification system?
    The 2 main open-source notification services I know are https://gotify.net/ and https://ntfy.sh/\ They are working on iOS apps, but neither have one because any notification server that works with iOS cannot be private unless notifications are encrypted (notifications must go through Apple servers).\ Notifications can be accessed by the browser and on Android apps, if it's enough for you. Source: about 2 years ago
  • An open-source tool to send push notifications to your phone/desktop, written in Go, Kotlin & React
    So it's basically a wrapper for Gotify? Source: about 2 years ago
  • Remote android setup
    Https://gotify.net/ and Tailscale are the two I'd recommend looking into. Source: about 2 years ago
