According to the release:

Adds experimental PostgreSQL support

The code was written by Cursor and Claude

14,997 added lines of code, and 10,202 lines removed

reviewed and heavily tested over 2-3 weeks

This makes me a bit uneasy, especially as ntfy is an internet facing service.

Am I overreacting or do you all share the same concern?

    Testing in production is the most idiotic last 10 years or so concept, which is mainly driven by incompetence of project managers.

    Imagine if you get sold a car by a company, for 100k, then it start having major issues and the car company tell you: “we’ll fix it”.

    While that does not necessarily apply to software or services or webapps, the logic still stands. You are selling bugs to people. Bugs that could have been cought, with some risk management and planning.
