After visiting the site I got a desktop notification thanking me for subscribing. I neither subscribed, nor allowed desktop notifications for that site... Not sure what's happened there, but can't be good!
Yea the site was asking for permissions while also popping up an immediate chat window. And they hide a "subscribe" button next to the Github link. Not sure why they thought developers would respond positively to this!
I know some people get annoyed by that but this isn't hidden purposefully as much as overcrowded. Setting up a complex tool requires hands on help which is why the "annoying" chat window (and I agree those can be annoying) is quite useful and answers a lot of questions.
The push prompt is a one time thing that you can always disable. I'd expect most developers to know that. It wouldn't be there if it wasn't effective...
Growth hackers constantly bang on filling things with popups that fly in your face like the dialogs that jump up when you scroll down. That's far worse IMHO.

You must have accidentally clicked OK on the browser popup. Press the icon on the bottom left for instructions on how to remove the push notification from the website.
I don't know why an informational site thinks it needs to have notifications anyway. I want notifications from things like Calendars and the like.
This is used to send updates on new important blog posts. You can subscribe/unsubcribe anytime.
Email or RSS would be better for that IMO -- I don't need my browser interrupting my flow for something like a blog post.
I agree and I personally subscribe via RSS and disabled push. The thing is that one size doesn't fit all (even with developers) and this is an option that's only intrusive once if you don't want it you can always turn it off (as I have).
The numbers are pretty clear about the value of website push and chat support otherwise both wouldn't be there...
