minus-squareblobjim [he/him]hexbear7·3 years agoYeah that's probably hexbear's fault then. I used to get even more notifications. Firefox just uses an internal notification UI instead of the OS where Edge probably uses the OS mechanism. link
minus-squarecrime [she/her, any]hexbear5·edit-23 years ago Yeah that’s probably hexbear’s fault then Lmao if a website's browser notification is able to send system level messages that sounds like a big sandbox escape security issue for the OS/browser link
minus-squareeduardog3000 [he/him]hexbear2·3 years agoIt's not a "system level message", it's a notification using the OS's standard notification system. Is every notification you get on your phone a security issue? link
minus-squarecrime [she/her, any]hexbear2·3 years agoI haven't touched windows in 15 years I'm not familiar with their OS features link
minus-squareeduardog3000 [he/him]hexbear1·3 years agoidk much about Linux's notification system, but from a quick search it looks like it's centered around a libnotify? Sounds right for Linux. So this is just Windows' version of libnotify vs Firefox just doing its own thing. link
