Vivaldi should give users more control of those website notification bubbles.
Perhaps their context menu should be more informative of its source and nature (I’ve seen how their very appearance confuses newbies, not to mention their quite often misleading messages), and how to disable them or at least reduce their frequency.
Currently, once you enable the notifications (and I think this feature also needs (reputations-based?) abuse protections) you’re almost guaranteed to get them at bad times and with useless information.
PS: I realise there’s currently another arms race between bad-faith website developers and browser developers: since the inevitable notification abuses started, browsers began remembering the users’ Deny selection, and stopped bothering them; websites now repeatedly pop-up simulated “Allow Notifications?” to avoid this ban.
I say: let’s keep fighting

@Gwen-Dragon For desktop it can't be inherited directly as Vivaldi uses custom UI, but for mobile it definitely should be enabled.
