I still do not understand what users actually want these. They are the modern-day pop-unders IMO.

We’ve found that notification usefulness ends up being different based on person + platform + site. So it’s been tricky to figure out a good UI for the permission requests (but we want to try)!

I usually block geolocation and every other permission too. I hope there is a more general UI improvement coming.

We're doing some work right now to improve the findability and usability of site-settings which should help make that possible. For permission-prompt-specific stuff we're starting with notifications but could certainly expand as we learn /cc @meggawat@MartijnvdBroeck@maxwkr - 2 more replies

I'm curious as to why an opt-in setting "Reject all notifications by default, kthxbye" has been missing until today? Seems quite obvious to me. The new approach is even better, but wonder why it was nag-by-default til now.

Functionality-wise, we've had such a setting (at the top of settings for each permission type) for many years
BUT the strings were confusing so we're trying to make them more clear. Some more background here:https://twitter.com/alexainslie/status/1176612465947238400 …

Feedback: They're all unimportant and should not be shown at all. If someone wants notifications they can go opt-in. No need to allow the site to prompt them and potentially trick unknowledgable users or risk misclick even by knowledgable ones.

Thanks! Could you expand a bit? (Where would folks need go to opt in? How would they learn about that spot?) Do you think our proposal strikes an OK balance?
