Congrats paras. I've been a big fan of your original work but I was rather disappointed to see your recent work like https://pushcrew.com https://pushcrew.com which is everything that is wrong with the internet today.
So many Indian sites are using your technology to make web browsing a nightmare for visitors and spam unsuspecting readers with web notifications.
I hate such popups and modals created by pushcrew like the fact it forces users to optin to these notifications on articles. It was not what the web notification api was designed for.
- thescribbblr 6y agoUsername inspired from Nawazuddin Siddiqui? I am also a fan of Paras. The way he started a profitable bootstrap startup is mind blowing. Been learning from his journey a lot.
- whycombagator 6y agoI am using nextdns with several block lists, both pushcrew and vwo are blocked for me.
- bingojess 6y agoNot surprising given the product... Almost all analytical tracking/telemertry will be blocked, Google Analytics etc.
- paraschopra 6y agoI understand why push notifications could be annoying, but the intent was to see if they could replace emails with bite-sized ephemeral information. Guess that's not happening. There are many clones of PushCrew now and I suspect you may be seeing those. We're evolving the product towards being a thoughtful part of website experience. I hate unsuspecting popups too.
