Nice. Getting more and more complete :)
This is fantastic! Personally, I’m going to choose to wait until we get the features you’re asking for: read only API tokens for notifications.
So glad to see you pushing this forward, however, on the cutting edge of the features Lemmy as a platform needs to become a real-deal, full-fat Reddit
competitorsuccessor!Totally understand! That’s why I chose to not make any requests at all until the dialog is agreed to. I don’t want any sketchy traffic exiting the app without your consent, and want to be totally transparent about exactly what is going on.
That said, just like you mentioned I felt this was something that was definitely needed. I am however considering writing something up that will allow you to run your own little server for notifications. It would
- perform the checks
- send the info to memmy.app with a memmy auth token
- forward the notification to you through our APN key
Not in the priorities, and hopefully this gets changed before I have to do it. But I really want to make sure everyone can take advantage of the features even if they want to keep things close to home.
That would make a really cool advanced feature! I suspect that’s pretty niche, however, and I definitely think the future of the platform is in easy to handle, automatic notifications though, which is why I think this is so great.
A crystal clear statement of intent, and a working implementation of notifications, with one very clear caveat where we’re saying, hey Lemmy devs, help us implement this without the security concerns.
Maybe one day you could offer private notification servers as a free option, and your own servers as an Apollo-like subscription cost/one time fee (if costs are low enough)? I definitely want to see this project stay economically viable so we can continue to get the great dev work you’ve been doing so far!
Would love to run my own push forward server but no priority. Thanks for the great work.
I’m too young to get this reference.
I believe he is more showing that he has push notifications working for Memmy.

It makes me wonder, how you keep from going under the notification?
