Separate "device" in pushbullet

Open brianjmurrell opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

When I add, say, a Chrome browser to my pushbullet account it is shown under Devices and I can send messages to it from another device in my PB account, like say, my phone.

It would be good if Pidgin was listed as a separate and independent "device" that I can send messages to from other devices.

Unfortunately with the current way of getting the auth working (by stealing the access token cookies from the pushbullet app) we can currently only show as "Chrome" on the device.

To be able to do this, we'd need to get the proper auth system working first - which is definitely still something I want to do

So would removing the PB extension in my chrome browser mean that all messages directed at "Chrome" would come to pidgin instead?
