Well I'm mostly curious at this point. The content itself was deeply researched and informative, nothing else seemed fishy on the page.
What reasons would a webdev want to enable such a feature on a site like this? And no, I'm not giving a random page permission so I can find out!
- Inconel 10y agoThis is just a guess on my part since I always deny these permission requests but I would think maybe accepting the request would allow the website to notify a reader when new articles are posted? Maybe it's something like notifications on an app only this is done via the browser? I feel like I started seeing these requests more frequently about 12-18 months ago. I agree it's very off putting.
- bitJericho 10y agoThat's around when windows started supporting it. I love the feature for sites I frequent.
- gregoryrueda 10y agoThe only site I allow to send me notifications is dictionary.com because I like getting a word of the day. Other than that, getting an alert from blogs every time a new article is posted gets old really fast.
- Terribledactyl 10y agoTo get you to comeback to the site. To demand a higher amount when negotiating with watch companies.
