## Does Bromite support extensions?
No; Bromite will support extensions only if upstream (Chromium) does, or similarly another project maintains the patch and functionality.
## Why do push notifications not work on this website?
The [Chromium Blink engine](https://www.chromium.org/blink) uses [GCM](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Cloud_Messaging) to deliver messages
when websites use the [Push API](https://w3c.github.io/push-api/); this will not work because cloud integrations are disabled in Bromite (GCM in this case).
[ServiceWorker notifications](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ServiceWorkerRegistration/showNotification) do work instead since they use
[android.app.Notification](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/notifiers/notifications).
