Push notification requests

[AZSkiffyGeek]

This morning I am getting push notifications popping up on every page. Is there a way to turn this off?

1. You mean at the top of the page?

We do send push notification requests... if you don't want to see them, hitting the button to decline should make them go away permanently.

2. I've been dismissing but they appear on every new page I go to on DU

Normally hitting it once would clear them for quite a while, but this is persistent.

3. Okay let me look into this quickly

I'll get back to you.

Edited to add: what is your browser?

5. Sorry just so you don't miss it

I edited my post above to ask what browser you're using.

7. Okay, thanks

I'm not sure why this is happening -- the requests should stop coming after you dismiss one of them. But I found a potential solution for you online. Try this site, scroll down to the section for Microsoft Edge. You would want to add www.democraticunderground.com as one of the sites to block:

Please let me know if that helped (or not).
