💡 Idea
To make /metrics more secure, it would be interesting to add basic auth.

As I have applications on the public Internet, I'd like /metrics information not to be available to everyone.

Node exporter allows this, as do other applications, so you might as well implement it.

You can achieve this via nginx or any other proxy in front of ntfy, or by simply binding the metrics server to localhost via metrics-listen-http: "localhost:9090". I don't intend to add basic auth support for /metrics
