add support for making a topic as listed or unlisted similar to youtube https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/3127309?hl=en.

Feature	Unlisted	Private	Public
Can share URL	Yes	No	Yes
Can be added to a channel section	Yes	No	Yes
Shows up in search, related videos, and recs	No	No	Yes
Posted on your channel	No	No	Yes
Shows in Subscriber feed	No	No	Yes

All I have to tell my family members now is download ntfy app, add the server and susbscribe to whatever topics you are interested in. Will probably want to support capability to add/remove servers first - https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/issues/295

@binwiederhier commented on GitHub (Jun 3, 2022):

While this is an interesting concept, it doesn't really fit into ntfy's model well. All interactions in the apps are topic specific. We do not log into a server or or add servers to the app. I'd have to change the paradigm to make it more server-centric.

The one appeal this would have is that I could much more easily promote the stats and announcement topics on the ntfy.sh server. For now I will close this as "wont do". Thanks for the idea.
