IEs biggest problem isn't market domination, its hindering the entire web, and pushing proprietary stuff.
Safari is one of the worst browsers in terms of compatibility, like PWAs and notifications, they are unsupported on purpose to push developer to develop apps and give apple a cut.
And when they do adopt new technologies, they are often super late like webp.
Please die WebKit.
- dmitriid 4y agoSafari supports everything in PWA (which is a non-existent thing, but a dozen standards in a trenchcoat) except notifications. By "compatibility" you mean "support all of the Chrome's no n-standards it pushes at breaking speed"?

- jacooper 4y agoIt won't, they want to push you to make an app no matter what.
- the_gipsy 4y agoI bet
- jolux 4y agoActually Web Push is coming in iOS 16.
- the_gipsy 4y agoIt's not in the release...
- jolux 4y agoWell iOS 16 is still in developer preview and it won't be launched for another 3 months almost, so it might not be in the currently released versions. But here: https://www.macrumors.com/2022/06/06/ios-16-support-web-push-notifications/ https://www.macrumors.com/2022/06/06/ios-16-support-web-push...
- barkerja 4y agoThese features were actually recently added. See https://www.apple.com/ios/ios-16-preview/features/ https://www.apple.com/ios/ios-16-preview/features/ Web push notifications Adds support for opt‑in notifications on iOS. Coming in 2023.
