@apa @gsuberland I can think of some disadvantages:
1. A group may not have a member technical enough and rich enough to operate "a traditional forum"
2. Signup confirmations too often get dropped without notification by overzealous #antispam
3. Forum tends not to support mobile #PushNotification, especially on #iOS where notification via #PushAPI cannot cause sound or vibration
4. Some people don't want their spur of the moment words to be indefinitely publicly indexed in web search as #receipts for harassers to use against them -
Reading up on #PWAs as a route to being able to offer people a daily reminder to play Chainagram via a notification on their phone. It's theoretically possible on Android and on the way soon on iOS but blimey it's immensely complicated - unless I'm reading things wrong there is no way to schedule a simple notification on-device, I'd have to go the whole hog of sending out individual push notifications with all the security issues and upkeep that implies. Am I just being stupid?
#WebDev #PushAPI -
Y'all help me out here, what's to be preferred:
JQuery.ajax() or mozilla service workers and the Push API?

So the most annoying websites bugging with request for push notifications you've blocked from asking again are now prominently displayed as disabled among intentionally installed apps and push-allowed webapps in Chrome OS 70 settings tray... What a way to encourage bad behaviour. :(
