Hi guys do you know of any way to integrate ntfy push notifications with lemmy?
Only way I’ve found so far is using an rss script https://github.com/camerahacks/rpilocator-rss-feed/blob/main/rpilocator-rss-ntfy.py
Curious if there are any other better ways to go about this
I don’t really self host a lemmy instance so I ended up taking a different route (admitidly janky but reliable).
I have a mac mini running 24/7, I enabled lemmy to send notification emails. On my mac I have the mail app set to automatic refresh and have a set of rules which search for lemmy instance as sender and subject contains reply. When mail detects it I have an apple script run a mac shortcut which checks my inbox latest inbox rss extracts the text and sends a ntfy push. Admitedly there are better ways to do this probably (than relying on shortcuts and apple script) but it works 🫠
Also I have the link set to open wefwef on android (open in opens webapp) on ios I have it run deeplink to a shortcut which opens wefwef in webview
This looks really nice, dude
Thanks. Quick question are nifty topics publically discoverable (ie there is a place in the nifty server to view anyones topic)?
I ended up choosing a long topic (I legit just mashed random letters in my keyboard) to make it undescoverable.
Example (ihfepaoheiwpahfiauwh)
Could some one easily discover that and snoop into the topic?
There is no way to list topics. That would be silly, given that topics are meant to be used as secret notification channels 🙃
The admin of the server can obviously list topics, but normal users cannot.
Good to know. Also thanks for making this push notifications are working reliable now 😉
I also changed the default notification sound to harvonicas harp from apollo (reminds me of apollo’s push to a degree) 🥲
