~~Is there a specific query parameter you're having problems with? All of the following work fine for me.~~

~~curl "https://ntfy.sh/mytopic/publish?message=testing"~~
~~curl "https://ntfy.sh/mytopic/publish?Message=testing"~~
~~curl "https://ntfy.sh/mytopic/publish?mEsSAgE=testing"~~

Never mind. I didn't notice that the message was triggered instead of testing when using the capital query parameters.

As per https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/pull/661#issuecomment-1458700198, I think we're not going to do this. Instead, we'll just update the docs to reflect that query params are lower-case only.

Changed in the docs:

The following is a list of all parameters that can be passed when publishing a message. Parameter names are case-insensitive when used in HTTP headers, and must be lowercase when used as query parameters in the URL. They are listed in the table in their canonical form.
