I've long believed that all apps (at least on Android) should start supporting UnifiedPush[1]. Tools like ntfy could serve as a central hub for notification distribution, allowing anyone to have their own notification server to connect apps and mobile devices. This would ensure greater privacy.
This is also why I developed NotiMail: we shouldn't have to rely on the 'big players' for our notifications and data.
Dear friends of #BSDCafe and the #Fediverse, today has been a Monday, and Mondays are always quite busy. However, I managed to reorganize the code of NotiMail to make it more suitable for packaging on various operating systems, and I have prepared and submitted the port for #FreeBSD for approval. As time permits, in the coming days, I'll do the same for other *BSDs and perhaps even create a simple Dockerfile. Meanwhile, I'm also diving deeper into #Peertune. Stay tuned!
✨ Now with support for monitoring multiple email accounts!
✨ Real-time notifications without draining your battery.
✨ Integrates with multiple push providers: ntfy, Gotify, & Pushover.
✨ SQLite3 database integration & secure IMAP SSL encryption.
First results: since I started using #NotiMail (and removed the permanent mail connection from my mobile phone), I've noticed that in the evening, I have 10-15% more battery than before.
NotiMail Update: NotiMail has been updated with refactored notification code, making it easier to support multiple notification services. Pushover support has also been added. Please be aware that there's a breaking change in config.ini.
