       | Fantastic project, I use it with ntfy.sh and it really makes
       | things easier.

       | I wish it supported Jami messages though, but Jami is somewhat
       | hard to do programmatically on Ubuntu, the DBus doesn't seem to

         | what's the usecase for combining this with ntfy?

           | Ntfy is a notification service. Ntfy is 1 of the 100+
           | notification services Apprise supports. Apprise is basically
           | a switchboard for notifications; a one stop shop.

       | How does it work, does it still use Firebase Cloud Messaging and
       | Apple Push Notification Service underneath?

         | In case it's not clear: it's not only for iOS/Android push
         | notifications. It provides a single API to send notifications
         | via a whole bunch of channels (Slack, Telegram etc.).
         | 
         | e.g. I have some code that notifies me in Telegram when
         | something happens. I had to integrate with the Telegram API to
         | do that. That's easy, but what if I want to switch the
         | notification to Slack or something? Or send it to to multiple
         | destinations? My code gets messy pretty quickly. If I switch to
         | using this, I can have multiple scripts that all use the same
         | API, and the choice of destination(s) become some small amount
         | of config in each script.
