Glassdoor is the perfect example of how annoying, even just opening a website can be, first it asks for your permission to use your location, then half the screen is filled with a cookie agreement and after you clicked it all away, you get a "download our app" filling just 30% of your screen, now that you clicked that all away, you may use the website, ludicrous.

edit: well fuck, just noticed the app message glitched away when taking the screenshot, you get the idea though

    @JoshBent it's sad when a useful site behaves like that. I find Glassdoor helpful.

    I think there’s some plug -ins that allow to pass those « create an account » type of things (like on pinterest)

    @teganburns exactly, have a button and then request the permission, it shouldnt be triggered on page load, those mobile app popups are too intrusive imho and is a signal that they can't make a uniform experience across devices, without having to rely on having the app
