Ah, yes, because I really want every site I visit on my phone to prompt me to enable notifications, just like my laptop.

So don’t opt in? Your desktop browser asks you on every domain whether you want them or not.

If a site asks, I navigate away. The times I don't, I usually regret the ad-ridden, clingy, user-hostile experience.

Mine does not ask because I configured it that way.

I agree that people should stop reading popular "news" websites, but it's not going to happen anytime soon.

You think a site can't be "popular", "news" and "shady" at the same time?

No, quite the contrary - "popular" and "news" often implies "shady".
