Jeedom migration to Home Assistant, PushOver notifications

State of play on Jeedom

I have been using the excellent PushOver plugin for a very long time.

I saw the appearance of a second plugin, I never tested it but it is a rather unbearable element at Jeedom: this is the multiplication of plugins. Why don't developers talk to each other? why does Jeedom accept this? I don't blame developers, especially when plugins are free, but it complicates users' lives. For the joke, look how many plugins there are for EcoWatts, you'll see …

In short, this part of the notifications works wonderfully well, I never had any worries, absolutely none. Neither with the PushOver server nor with the plugin. It is really very convenient as a notification system.
