Hello friends, I posted here about ntfy before (https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy, see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29715464 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29715464 for previous discussion), but I've added a ton of features, so I thought I'd share some updates. For those who don't know, ntfy is a a tool that lets you send push notifications to your phone from any script or server using a simple HTTP PUT/POST requests. It's 100% open source and self-hostable, and has an Android app and a web app. You can use it like this (more in the docs): curl -d "Backup on $(hostname) complete" ntfy.sh/mytopic I host free and open version on ntfy.sh, but you can host your own of course. Since my last post, I added the following features: Publish messages as JSON, custom user actions via action buttons, ntfy:// deep links, ntfy support in Apprise (thanks to @caronc), translations into 13 languages in the web app and Android app, lots of example usages, e.g. with NodeRED, Gatus, Sonarr, Radarr; a super cool chat-style message bar in the web app, and more. I am happy to answer any and all questions, and I'd love some feedback or new ideas.

  Well done. Do you have any examples that show how to integrate with Home Assistant?

    Thank you. I do not, but if it can do http requests then it should be pretty simple. Let me know when you can something and I'll add it to the docs.
