For fun, I am building a little tool called 'domain-manager'. Basically just a binary that automates configuring a Linux host to run a bunch of WordPress/Laravel/PHP sites. It creates all the necessary boilerplate to gen

Honestly, push notifications from a news site arguably is one of the few sites that I see having a reason to send push notifications. Communication platforms; messaging apps (Slack, Discord etc); email sites (gmail and co.) also make sense.
