vasanthv··on Show HN: Pushie – Get notified with a simple webhook
My bad, i was wrong.
vasanthv··on Show HN: Pushie – Get notified with a simple webhook
Not much difference. Only thing I can think of is ntfy does not have web push, it requires you to install android app or ios app to receive push notifications. For web it requires you to keep to tab open to receive the push notification.

Thanks for the suggestion, will add more detail to the "Where can I use this?" section. Also, the additional logging does not log the messages, the log data gets cleared in 7 days. Either way I will add the details in the privacy policy.

I have not yet published the code. But will do that soon as it needs to be cleaned up a bit.

vasanthv··on Show HN: Talk – A free video call app for the web
Hello HN,

I created Hello (https://itshello.co) in 2018 and many people quickly started using it, but I have to sell it in 2019 as it was in autopilot mode and I didn't do any enhancement to it for a long time. I sold it, so that some else can pick it up and update it, but that did not happen, it's still in the same state as 2018.

Recently, there have been few enhancements in WebRTC and related APIs, but I couldn't update Hello now. So I created this separate app with those enhancements and stabilizations. I also added a stable screen sharing feature for supported devices.

Introducing "Talk - A free video call app for the web". https://talk.vasanthv.com

Though it does not get its own fancy domain name, it's stable, works 100% and supported by all the modern browsers in all the platforms (both desktop & mobile).

Check it out and let me know what you think.
