@me Nice write up.

To wake up the phone one can also do ntfy <topic> send-sms.sh and then mark the number that sends the SMS as silent in #chatty.

The SMS can be sent from the UP server via an old phone or via services like text-belt.

(that's what I'm using atm to get my devices to sleep longer).

@me a nice feature of SMS is that you can put the metadata into the SMS so one can e.g. just fetch that one single message in matrix (once chatty supports this, l already added support to libcmatrix)

@agx@librem.one Yes, that's supperior if sending SMS is cheap or flat. I looked around for cheap SMS and it seems to depend on the volume: either a flat starting from 3,50€ / month or some internet service charging around 0,06 € / SMS.

And there are shady services offering SMS for free via form on the internet. I don't believe in services that are for free and protect my privacy.

The companies I use for calling I do pay already even though I believe that calling for signaling only might be against my contract.

I guess the best solution will be if people join into groups to drive a SMS flat to share the monthly price. The groups still would need to trust each member or at least the admins, because they have their numbers.

Implementing a notification distributor into chatty is a genius move 😀. It'd be great if it could subscribe over IP as well. This could open the way to a protocol that avoids sending SMS in times the distributor is online and receiving notifications via IP.

This could work like a fallback connection: if the notification server doesn't detect the distributor getting a notification it'll fallback to pushing it out by SMS.
