Feature Request - Minecraft plugin or standalone app for push notifications and analytics

[Person1425]

So since push notifications and server analytics aren’t possible unless there’s an external server hosting those things is it feasible to make a Minecraft plugin or a self host able server to take care of those things

After my iOS 17 update comes out, I am planning I might start my own server and charge a monthly subscription to tackle this. It would be priced at 1.99 a month or $20 a year. The server component will also be open source so if anyone really wanted to they will be able to host it themselves. Expect an update on this topic in ~6 months.

Hey there! Any update on this?

I've played around with it, but nothing concrete. Writing a custom server component is going to cost me monthly for hosting it, and implementing an iAp payment subscription model for it would be a fair amount of work.

How much would you be willing to pay per month/year for this service? Would you pay $1.99 a month or $20 a year?

Hey there! I’m from https://bisquit.host/en and really love your project

I think we can provide you with a low-tier VDS in exchange for a “Powered by Bisquit.Host” banner with a link somewhere in the settings. I could also contribute if you’re into Swift+Vapor backend

I appreciate the offer, but I already have the architecture laid out using AWS lambda and dynmo db so its serverless to avoid having to deal with server maintenance/uptime. Really building the in app subscription system is what i am avoiding. but maybe I'll do some tests, since they have free limits on aws and i might be able to do it cheap and just eat to cost/rely on tips in the app.
