What do you use to deliver WhatsApp notifications? Does WhatsApp notifier have a privacy policy document?

Cool, this being in python and using Jinja templates should mean easy customization for one's needs.
BTW, for simple cases sometimes shell scripting is enough, I use this to get referrer summary from access.log:
zcat sitename.log.gz | cut -d '"' -f 4 | sort | uniq -c

Logparser
Alternative to GoAccess in Python

Near-realtime alerts (seriously, less than a minute from me posting a comment with a monitored keyword, to receiving a Syften notification about it)

Probably the best customer support I've had to work with. Very willing to help, and actually able to help – knowledgeable, have means to investigate production issues, and get their engineering team involved. Issues that that take time to fully resolve don't fall through the cracks, they always follow up.

No false positives. Catches even brief downtimes. When a HetrixTools alert comes in it is go time.

Healthchecks.io monitors your cron jobs, background services and scheduled tasks. It notifies you when your nightly backup has not completed, your Raspberry Pi has lost connection, or a checkout flow on your shopping site has not completed for too long.

Hello Makers and Hunters!
I'm Pēteris Caune, the one person army behind Healthchecks.io. This is not a fresh launch, I've been working on Healthchecks.io for the past *6 years*. It started as a side-project, but is now my main gig and my primary source of income.
I work in the open – the code powering Healthchecks.io is BSD-licenced, you can view it on Github, you can host it yourself, you...

- "Hello, I'm ABC from sales at XYZ, I want to discuss something, let's jump on a call!"
- report spam and move on
For work stuff, have scheduled, regular meetings. For me it's 1h call every other day.
How do you manage to eliminate the number of video/voice calls when working remotely?

Aggressively use the "unsubscribe" button for any unwanted notifications. If it's missing or requires more than a single confirmation click, use "Report Spam".
How do you handle notification fatigue?

As it happens, I'm currently looking at different status page providers. One of my requirements is: the public status page should not serve any tracking cookies. I see https://meta.statuspal.io serves __cfduid and _statushq_key. I know __cfduid comes from Cloudflare, but what does _statushq_key do?
Statuspal
Beautiful hosted status pages & monitoring
