Ntfy is more like a tool to aggregate notifications for recipients themselves right? Novu is like a backend as a service for notifications.

Yea I was wondering about this myself actually... I'm building a SaaS and wanted to add notifications - without building my own app. But now my customers would still have to install the Ntfy app, which then could be used for notifications from other services as well.

But yea maybe it's more for geeks who want to send notifications from many places and receive them in a single app

Why MongoDB is a deal breaker?

Because MongoDB's license change disallowed cloud service provider to host MongoDB. This reduces the competition and *probably* making MongoDB more expensive than says PostgreSQL. Which I can find a hosted solution anywhere I host my VPS.

There are a few alternatives to Novu - Courier, Knock, Engagespot, SuprSend

> a hosted solution anywhere I host my VPS

Wait what? Hosted or you host on your VPS there is a major difference.

Or do you mean you host yourself now and want to be able to move to a hosted solution (or the other way around)

Aws documentDB is compatible with MongoDB

It is compatible with MongoDB v4.0 only. The latest version is 6.0.7.

You're a ~years out of date on both numbers :P

That is not an accurate interpretation of the SSPL. You can build any software you want on top of it... the key is you can't deliver it itself as a public cloud service, that's all

That's what they were saying. They are saying that aws not being able to offer a hosted version is the bad thing they don't like.

Well, if we consider Neuralink, that is just another interface. I still don't understand how the UX problem could be solved.

No functional brain, no UX problem. Fixed.
