Notifications can't load when on restrictive networks #4731

It seems like notifications as a whole are broken when on my work network, I have to disconnect my phone from wifi and connect to data instead if I want to see them. I don't entirely know what causes this, all I know is Firefox is convinced this is a CORS issue.

A screenshot of the Firefox network inspection tab. Multiple rows read 'Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://notifs.tangled.network/xrpc/org.tangled.temp.notification.getUnreadCount. (Reason: CORS request did not succeed). Status code: (null).'

it shows up as a cors issue but it really is just your browser being unable to reach the notifications server. not sure there is anything tangled can do to solve this. we use client side oauth now to auth and fetch notifications at the moment.

Looks like it was a Palo Alto issue, I've submitted a report to get the domain recategorized as Computer-and-Internet-Info (same as https://tangled.org) so hopefully this gets resolved soon. This has been bugging me lol

It worked! Palo Alto has recategorized https://tangled.network as Insufficient-Content and that's propagated to my work's firewall, and I now get notifications 😄

A screenshot of Tangled's top bar. 2 notifications for isaaccorbrey.com are waiting to be ack'd.

awesome!
