> Mobile notifications for organizations with up to 10 users
Why does the self-hosted edition have this restriction? If the software is truly OSS, the limit could be trivially patched. But this kind of restriction just does not inspire much confidence in the project to be honest.
Because mobile notifications require integration with operators and cost money.
This is not about the ones that are pushed over IP, this is about mobile push.
Mobile notifications do not require outside operators. UnifiedPush / ntfy is FLOSS, and allows for a single background connection for multiple apps / notification channels. It can also be self-hosted (and I do!)
This puts the operational costs (number of devices and notifications) on whomever is running the server - and because of how valuable metadata is, I expect them to be run in-house by governments
It doesn't require operator involvement, you can just integrate with FCM and APN?
FCM and APN are the operators
