Depending on who you ask, push notifications are either a godsend or a curse.

You will need to handle the alerts to categorize them and stop receiving news about items you don’t care about.

Chrome users, rejoice!

Each operating system has its own method for managing push notifications. Depending on the operating system, Chrome employs a variety of approaches.
