I've been using, passingly, ntfy.sh, can you compare PushBeacon to ntfy? I like the idea of a pay once, PushBeacon does definitely have attractive pricing. Though, my usage of ntfy.sh is so minimal that I easily fit into their free tier (so far I've not gotten above a couple notifications a month). Their API is also super duper easy.

Certainly! Fundamentally, ntfy.sh and pushbeacon.com do the same thing. However, there are a few differences: - as you mentioned, the pricing: we offer lifetime pricing, which will evolve. The current price is for the early stages because the project is still in its initial phase. - regarding notifications, we don't store anything at all, unlike ntfy. This can be a strength or a weakness; if you need to have many different channels and keep track of them, ntfy is clearly a better alternative. - PushBeacon was designed to be very simple to use. Generate a code, enter it into the application, add an API key, and that’s it. You can send notifications in less than two minutes. We don't offer as many features as ntfy, but simplicity is the heart of the project.
