    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.
