About PushBits
PushBits is a small server written in Go that receives notifications from your applications and scripts and forwards them as Matrix messages, so they arrive in any Matrix client you already use. The project describes itself as a minimalistic alternative to Pushover and Gotify.
It ships with a Docker image and an example YAML configuration, and can use PostgreSQL for storage. The developers label the software as alpha, so expect changes between releases.
