What the absolute f*ck is wrong with people that would put and keep any nagware.
@xianc78 WebShit is still full of this.

I tried browsing HP's website and got a nagging chatbot which would blink it's text in the page title and then some stupid popin.

@lanodan Oh. I thought you're talking about shit like WinRAR which nags you to buy the full version.

@xianc78 Well other than the web, the software I pick is unix enough that by default it shuts up.

@lanodan @wilmhit That pretty much applies to Windows 10 users now. I can't go one day without hearing the Win10 notification sound and I don't even use Windows 10.

@lanodan @wilmhit On campus, it feels like I here the Windows 10 notification sound every 10 minutes. It's probably going to be worse when I get an actual job.

@lanodan @xianc78 Notifications are ok if used correctly. I meant more:

system update popups (now with ultra-compilcated dismissal)
re-log into iCloud popup
iCloud is full. give us money notification
We should have your credit card in app store anyway dialog
