#Amethyst v0.80.1: FOSS Push Notifications
This version adds support for UnifiedPush to the FOSS edition of Amethyst. Make sure to have one of the [UnifiedPush](https://unifiedpush.org/) apps installed to receive Notifications. Once installed, Amethyst will ask which distribution app to use. If the app is paid, make sure to have enough credits in that system.

Just stood up my own ntfy server for this. Been wanting notifications since forever!
Is there a way to test them? And what kind of notifications can I even receive now?
Configured a single user and made the default deny-all, all behind a Caddy reverse proxy with HTTPS. So technically I should be set.
Anything else?
Try to message or zap yourself. :)
Neither your zaps, nor my self-messages triggered a notification - and I was eyeballing the logs as well. I can see that the app has registered a topic, but not sent anything there, at all.
I'll grab a few screenshots real quick. :)
hum... Maybe nostr:npub1a3tx8wcrt789skl6gg7rqwj4wey0j53eesr4z6asd4h4jwrd62jq0wkq4k can help here.
Is this through the base ntfy service or with your own servers?
Our push server is taking the event from relays and sending it to your server. Do you have to white-list our servers? If so, it will call from https://amethyst-notif-server.herokuapp.com
Oh my god this might be it. I have set the default to deny-all because I thought everything came from Amethyst... I'll set it to write-only - don't need strangers to read my notifications :)
Theeeeere we go!
Is your experience worth a blog post on Habla? :) I think more people need to know they can put up their own notif servers.
Hm... I should consider that, yeah. o.o Has been a while since I last checked out several blogging clients. After I learned that YakiHonne was closed source, I kinda turned away from the idea of blogging a little miffed.
And, thanks. :)
Very likely you will have to allow write all for the Amethyst topic. I've set this up for my Synapse Home Server and that is the recommended approach for a locked down personal NTFY server. This guide is very helpful for a personal NTFY server:
