Time to get serious with E2E encrypted messaging

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Yep, I run my own mollysocket + ntfy server.
Essentially, molly socket functions as another device, when it recieves a notif, it pings your specified unified push server, which then queues up a notification for the ntfy app on your device.
You don't need to run your own unified push server, and can just use one of the main ones, but I figured I might as well.
I personally have them hosted on fly.io for free via the legacy hobby plan.
Now all I need to do is get more of my friends to message me on it 🤣
Here's the link for anyone who's interested: https://github.com/pcrockett/mollysocket-fly
Huh I didn't know this existed. Will compare it to mine later
Oh that's the only one I know of. I thought that this is what you're referring to.
Nah I rolled my own and didn't publish it so that's probably why haha.
Have you been using this one?
~~On my app I don't get rich notifications only "you may have a new message". Havent looked into it at all though, only set this up like last week~~
Lol there is a setting in molly itself for rich notifs
I tried it out once, but I currently don't use it, because I just run mollysocket on my own server.
That should only be the case while your Molly database is locked, because the actual messages can't be decrypted, so no message preview can be shown in the notification.
