Artificial elemental transmutation of lead into other elements is not just fantasy, it's entirely possible and happens in particle accelerators and nuclear reactors. It's just extremely impractical as it's an extremely slow process at anywhere near the particle fluxes we can practically achieve. Plutonium is made through a similar process (though the exact mechanism used to produce plutonium is relatively more efficient) as well as small quantities of useful radioisotopes, but it is also possible with lead.
Home Assistant notifications and almost all other notification services on phones actually route notifications through a cloud service like Firebase because Apple and Google try to railroad apps into their platforms. Ntfy lets you actually self host notifications without a third party, but also without killing your battery.
That's not the main thing I care about, though. Mainly I use it as a self hosted replacement for PushBullet, to share links and files with myself across machines and do some light alerting for servers and stuff (e.g. TrueNAS errors). Some of that could he done with HA, but ntfy is just better for some other uses with stuff like its web ui.
Plus, apart from that ntfy is really easy to integrate with other stuff, like its easy to send a notification from a shell script or web hook so you can hack it into things that don't otherwise support notifications (there are also lots of things that support ntfy natively, e.g. the arrs).
