It's funny how everything Big Tech likes seems to be related to spying.

@amerika @tournel @ntfy @unifiedpush Almost like that is their primary purpose.

It seems to be their business model: get money from government, do what government wants, then ignore the fact that tech has stagnated since 1992 or so.
I doubt @ntfy and @unifiedpush is any safer
There are some fundamental differences, like open source allowing your to check the integrity of the app for yourself and self-hosting instead of trusting somebody else to handle your notifications. I'm not a fan of the NTFY author having a company while residing where he does though, so many national laws that could put him in hot water and he wouldn't be able to tell us.
Android + GrapheneOS + manual pull FTW.
When I briefly had an Apple I turned off all notifications. Forget comsec & infosec for a minute, just the "quality of life improvements" alone are worth it.
