But then it wouldn't be a "push" notification. It's called "push" because the service is "pushing" the notification onto the user, the user has no agency in the matter aside from straight up blocking/disabling them.
- jwestbury 4y agoNo, it's called push because of push/pull architecture. You can subscribe to have notifications pushed, which is a way you, as a user, can control the behaviour.
- Dalewyn 4y agoYou essentially repeated what I said, other than implying the user had a choice in getting notifications pushed to him to start with.
- Jcowell 4y agoThe difference is the Initiation. Push notifications have nothing to do with the platform enforcing push upon the user. Your comment made it seem like it was.
