    Hey. I was watching this thread and created an account just to say that you are right! Bombarding a user with popup stuff is one of the things i criticized in my blog. I completely forgot that i turned on this setting when i set it up (whoops). I changed the “notification-question” to only show once after you visited the site for the fifth time.

    Thanks for visiting my site though and for pointing this out to me! <3

      Which you do by tracking your users instead of generating a value and leaving users to decide if they want to be notified about new content. Put a button on your page that allows for this, but don’t go out bothering people.

      Welcome to the part of the Internet with a soul.

      Seriously if you’re old enough to remember the Internet in terms of users weird passion projects you could do a lot worse than hanging off any part of activitypub.

      There’s a lot more people than the old days with technical backgrounds, so there’s a lot more practical stuff.
