I agree users don't want notifications from web pages, but the web is much more then just web pages and I would argue that on web applications users are much more likely to allow push notifications if they get a clear benefit.
- Google234 6y agoEvery other platform supports these notifications and yet somehow 99% of the sites that do it are using it for spam.
- olliej 6y agoEvery non-web platform has an initial gate of "install application X". The web does not have that gate. The web has "I went to the apps website to see if it did what I wanted. it did/didn't, and then asks to send me update notifications"
