Hi,

I'm searching for a forum software 

  • works fine with mobile (responsive)
  • handle attachments (files, images, image albums or slideshows would be great)
  • web push notifications

Can anyone recommend a forum software for that use cases?

If you choose the self-hosted app, it's a one-time price tag of USD 275. Compared to the cloud solution pricing, that's a fair price (the 6 month renewal is optional; you can continue to use the software, but don't have access to upgrades etc.)

The thing with push is: It's not trivial to set up yourself. I'm not sure you'll find an open-source (or free) forum that contains that feature as well.

It isn't really difficult to setup with php and javascript.

Working example:
https://webpushdemo.azurewebsites.net/

Custom server php lib for testing:
https://github.com/web-push-libs/web-push-php

I tried to build it with php and js, which works. But the js part isn't a library for simple use... I tested it some time ago, but the code should work...
https://notify.it-dengler.de/index.php

Just subscribe / enable notifications and wait 5 seconds (configured delay). It also works if you disable and enable notifications and close the browser during delay. You will get a notification and click opens a new tab.
