      Yeah 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.

        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

          It'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?

            I haven't touched windows in 15 years I'm not familiar with their OS features

              idk 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.
