Hello, this is certainly low importance thing, i apologize if it should not be posted there.

Some web pages are producing sound notifications, example when page has an online chat and support staff just sent you a message. Even if i switch to other tab, it can remind me there is something new.

So i was thinking it may be good if there is sound notification when there is new Newsfeed entry on ZeroHello page (especially one that mentions you). Sound of mention can differ from new post sound. I think it may increase interaction between users and make the discussion on Zeronet more used/beneficial/alive.

In Firefox if one want to mute the sounds for certain tab, one just click speaker icon on the tab.

May be good if user can change sound by a hack or in UI or possibly toggle sounds by an icon (default = sound off)

UPDATE: "desktop notifications" feature request here: #52

I think it would be better to use the web notifications API. Currently (to save CPU) the notifications only reloaded if the tab is active. We have to change this if we want inactive tab notifications.

Please allow custom notification sounds so then nearby snitches and authorities think they hear a notification from another app like WeChat. Also add a list of sound bytes that common legal applications use.

Suppose ZeroNet was illegal in the US. I'd then need the sound to be the default of the device or a Skype/Zoom sound byte.
