Why?
Web browsers were designed from the start to show you only content you expressly requested. Notification APIs are still opt-in. A browser is primarily pull-oriented, whereas a phone was always bi-directional. Inverting this expectation for the browser is very much unwelcome.

- selfhoster11 3y agoWho said I didn't? There's a time and a place to notify, and my browser definitely isn't the place. They can send the notification to my phone instead
