Playing GoW on steam. Decided to try enabling alerts. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/5/7/578f2fa341e9eda095dce2586a3d115345993cb3.png) This happens on both Opera & Edge. Both of which use chromium base. Guess I’ll just keep on living in non-alert ignorance. ---

Web notifications should work in either browser. I’m using Edge here. Here’s what I had to do: Disable ad-blocking for the Web Alerts page the game opens for you. Add an exception for notifications from `alerts.gemsofwar.com` Add ad-block/DNS block exceptions for `aswpapius.com` ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/0/8/08d2194bc61ecf1c2fc856af15715c161f1ec2bd.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/6/b/6b789307508c7f431e5284e953ae9ed26bf7fed8.png) If it still doesn’t work, open developer mode (usually Ctrl-Shift-C or F12) and check the error message in the ‘Console’ section. ---

Ah thanks for that info. Turns out I had to disable both the adblocker _and_ the tracker blocker in opera for the link to work. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/1/4/14cb3d406441a123047e929eebb86597fa8cbb11.png) With the tracker blocker enabled, the console showed adblocking error. And _then_ I had to restart the game so I could actually configure which alerts to send. ---

Ehmmm… a website that needs disabling adblocker and/or tracker-blocker isn’t for me. Simple as that. ---

Only had to disable them for this specific page, no other. ---

It’s ok. I ask myself why a tracking cookie is better when it comes from a website I want to read then from a website I “surf through by accident”. But… that’s just me. ---

Gems of War sends out several thousand tracking pings per week anyway 🤷
