… specifically, the thing to deliver alerts from your servers to your phone or whatever. I’m using Discord, because it doesn’t depend on my own infrastructure, and I can make a private “alerts” channel on my private server. But I’d like to switch to something that’s not Discord. I’m using alertmanager, FWIW.
The only thing I rely on from day to day is my nextcloud instance, and my phone gets blown up by failed webdav synchronisation alerts when that fails…
I use AlertManager and the push notifications available on Home Assistant companion app.
The push notifications from home assistant do me fine. AlertManager webhook to home assistant and a small automation to send the push.
Could use matrix but this has been perfectly fine for now.
I use pushover mostly. It’ll let me know when disks are full, certs need renewing.
Home assistant for home stuff. Sauna is heating, sauna reached temperature, boiler took a break because electricity is expensive, washing machine is done.
My current setup is Uptime Kuma sending notifications via Ntfy.
I need to resolve the issue of what to do when the internet is down (and thus Ntfy cannot be reached), but it has so far done everything I want it to do. It also means I get push notifications on all the devices I care to receive them on.
Was using ntfy.sh until it was AI slopped. Now I’m on apprise. But ntfy was superior.
I personally chose ntfy over gotify and use it everywhere
I’m old and don’t have any identifiable infos in my alerts so I use plain mail messages. If for some reason mail wasn’t a good option, I’d use ntfy
Gotify, super easy to setup, very basic but has everything I need.
Peekaping hooked into home assistant for notifications.
I don’t have many alerts setup, but I use Mattermost anyway and I send alerts into a Mattermost channel. Sonarr and Radarr report when a download is complete. Jellyfdash reports when someone outside my home starts streaming something over Jellyfin.
I have signal-cli set up on my home assistant and use that for notifications from home.assistant as well as uptime kuma, etc.
I’m using an Uptime Kuma container which can be configured to alert through just about anything you like.
