Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/issues/1558

Not getting new notifications after I reach the system hard-coded limit which seem to be 24/25. No sound, nothing. I can however, see the notification getting listed if I manually open the application.

The relevant logs obtained via adb logcat:

NotificationService: Package has already posted or enqueued 25 notifications.  Not showing more.  package=io.heckel.ntfy

So the notification is indeed getting through however I am no longer being notified after reaching that limit, I need to manually clear the notifications.

Please handle this exception and pop the stack accordingly.

This is an Android system limit. You may want to update existing notifications instead, or clear/delete them remotely. https://docs.ntfy.sh/publish/#updating-deleting-notifications -- Note that the ntfy server version with this feature was released just today, and the Android version is in the public open beta.
