It’s pretty annoying.

- the dialog is model

- it’s small, and drops down from the top (a “reverse toast”?)

- I frequently use screen zoom So am typically unable to see the top of any window because I’m reading content

- I click a link, the page loads, the “toast” drops down but I don’t see it, suddenly nothing on the page works

For 99% of sites which ask for permission the answer is “no”. So that’s a lot of annoying web sites.

A lot of these complaints are about the underlying notification system, which is way, way better on iOS than on Mac, and is already what you get if you have app notifications anyway.
