Anything that appears in the top right corner is easier to dismiss. For new email notifications, that's not a big deal, but those initial notifications for each app, where they ask for permission to send notifications, I'd rather those appear in the center, where they'd be harder to ignore.

The former appear in middle-of-screen boxes, while the latter are smaller in the top-right corner, often times only showing you there's a button to click when your cursor hovers over it buttons. One design discrepancy I've noticed, though, is how macOS handles security alerts and notifications. The request for notifications should have greater prominence.
