ntfy.sh v2.18.0 was written by AI

To be fair they would have needed to spend time testing the manual implementation as well.
The problem I see mainly is that even if this rolls out perfectly, the erratic and changing nature if llms still make it pointless as a proof of concept. Next time Claude might fuck up in a fringe way that's not covered by unit tests and is missed by manual tests.
On the other hand I guess I've been guilty myself on numerous occasions to implement fringe bugs into production code, but at least I learn from it.
I made my statement as a BDD/TDD practitioner.
The code goal of software engineering is not to deliver said code, but to deliver it in a framework that lets others—and consequently me in a week’s time—to contribute easily. This makes both future improvements and bug fixes easier.
Dumping a ~25000 lines changeset with a git history that’s almost designed to confuse is antithetical to both engineering and open source.

According to the release:
Adds experimental PostgreSQL support
The code was written by Cursor and Claude
14,997 added lines of code, and 10,202 lines removed
reviewed and heavily tested over 2-3 weeks
This makes me uneasy, especially as ntfy is an internet facing service. I am now looking for alternatives.
Am I overreacting or do you all share the same concern?
I just set up a ntfy server for Unified Push earlier this week to use with Matrix. Now I have to turn around and immediately replace it...
-
Yeah, this is now inherently untrustworthy. Better to switch to an alternative.
Do you know any? I've never really looked beyond ntfy.sh until now

Definitely time to find an alternative. What the actual fuck is this

Oh ffs..
Thanks for the heads-up

I only know NextPush (Nextcloud App), but there is also something called Autopush I think?

Classic "test in production" strategy, very solid!
Test in production is the best. We spent months warning from data bugs and nobody bat an eye (upstream bug, not our responsibility but we noticed)
When it was d launched in prod we just pointed out the bug that nobody fixed was still there and immediately a war room was formed and the bug fixed within an hour.It honestly seems more efficient to let shit hit the fan than to fight everybody to do their job.

Same here. Literally just set it up and now this.
I hope the author will roll this back or someone else makes a fork. I don't want to immediately switch technology to XMPP/Matrix/... and have to do it all over again.

You're implying a shitty capitalist company that nobody cares for if it burns down. A tool like this though that is self-hosted by a lot of people (29.1k stars on GH!) and that is internet-facing is very different.

For sure, the song of the hero who fixed the production bug is oft sang at meetings but the loser who prevented the bug to begin with gets no credit.

I'll embrace the inevitable fork.

If you use ntfy mainly as a Unified Push distributor on Android, then I highly recommend switching to a XMPP client that can do the same.
Do you recommend an app?

Gotify is supposedly a good alternative. Looking into it myself now.

I've been meaning to put something like this in my setup for a while, but definitely not this now! List of alternatives in the Custom Communication section at awesome selfhosted

Then, let's just call it "massive decentralized surprise testing"

@ueiqkkwhuwjw let some other suckers beta test this AI code
