ntfy VS fdroiddata

Slightly related, but I've also been working on and off for a few years on my own Type 1 Diabetes management solution (https://github.com/algao1/iv3).

I haven't had time to work on it recently, but it uses ntfy (https://ntfy.sh/) to send alerts and such.

I was thinking of eventually incorporating some kind of automatic remedial solution eventually to help keep my glucose in range, but haven't had any time to look into it yet.

If you go to the settings, there should be a notification category, which then contains another menu "App Notifications" where you can see all the apps that are allowed to receive notifications, but I don't know if this will stop google play services to receive these identifiers.

I use GrapheneOS, so I don't have any google play services running, but for the apps where I need notifications I use https://unifiedpush.org/ (only a few apps implement it) and I host my own https://ntfy.sh server.

Kind of similar, in the early days of COVID, I accidentally discovered that my state's website would have test results available several hours before they sent out the "view your results" email. So I made a script that would check the site every five or ten minutes and then ping me as soon as the result changed to something besides PENDING.

In the course of that I stumbled on https://ntfy.sh/ which solved the notification problem without needing Twitter, and I've used it since then to let me know when long-running scripts complete.

I connect any app that supports https://unifiedpush.org/ to a self hosted https://ntfy.sh instance for fully self hosted push notifications

changedetection.io just donated to the awesome crew over at ntfy.sh

For further monitoring & alerting about critical cpu temperatures (unlikely now) for example, I plan to use notify & something else. Haven't thought about this much yet though.

I've started tossing https://ntfy.sh/ alerts into my Deno apps to get push notifications for things I'm interested in

ntfy.sh

If it was for fun and to learn how, that's fair. But are you aware of https://ntfy.sh?

Fork this repository.

For reference my app: project: https://github.com/balzack/databag merge request: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/merge_requests/12183

You should add a new entry in "Builds". Have a look at how Newpipe does it for each new version here for example.

To me it's not very clear whether those terms practically apply only to their app, since clearly they can't grab logs from Aurora if Aurora doesn't dump those logs for example... but if this is something the F-Droid team should look into, open an issue on https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/issues or inquire in one of their official channels on OFTC (#fdroid) or Matrix (#fdroid:f-droid.org).

OsmAnd~ from F-Droid not having Android Auto is a known bug: see the discussions at https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/issues/2567 , https://github.com/osmandapp/OsmAnd/issues/13514, https://github.com/osmandapp/OsmAnd/issues/3391 and https://github.com/osmandapp/OsmAnd/issues/15400

You can also get F-Droid Build Status which I believe will let you see apps that are being attempted to be built even if their build isn't succeeding yet, again for the "catching things early experience". Or, just keep an eye on the issues, merge requests and commits at fdroiddata which is where people actually add new metadata for new apps to be built by F-Droid, and it often takes a while between an app being first mentioned, and it being able to be included, for many possible reasons.
