Will and won't this encourage spam from websites in the form of advertisements etc.? I hope this has some form of authentication barrier. Presently, I prefer desktop notifications from Chrome via Chime on websites I have signed in. - http://chimeapp.com/ http://chimeapp.com/
- glhaynes 13y agoYeah, the user has to accept notifications per site.
- RossM 13y agoIt's opt-in, similar to Chrome's desktop notifications.
- bradleyland 13y agoI up-voted because I've noticed a dramatic increase in the number of auth requests as I browse websites. In most cases the website authors are just trying to be helpful, but the bar is pretty high for me to sign up for push notifications. For most websites, I prefer to get email, if anything at all. Push notifications are the kind of thing I'm only going to use for transactional matters. The problem (for me) is that no one seems to be able to run a push service without abusing it. I can't sign up for weather alerts without being bombarded with useless information, much less a Mac news-site.
