@migmit @zachleat If the web page is some kind of messaging or social media app, then push notifications might make a lot of sense.

I have them enabled for the Mastodon PWA on my phone, for instance.

@migmit @zachleat it is. If you opt in to it and install it on your home screen.

@martinpallmann @migmit @zachleat the install to home screen requirement is another non sense from Apple.
Most web pages don't need push notifications but in other cases it makes a lot of sense. In order to be able to use them the user has to grant that permission, but in the other hand any native app gets that permission (and many others) by default
