Gmail, outlook web, whatsapp web, slack web … just some examples of webapps that I use or used in the past that someone might legitimately want notifications from. Maybe you don’t use them, or are not required to use them for work, and that’s fine.

The article is specifically talking about android though, and there you’d most likely use an app for those, so I personally never needed them on mobile, but I can see someone else might need them.

Yeah, I am an IT guy and at our office there have been two users in the last year who has somehow enabled notifications from what is clearly a spam site which keeps spamming notifications as if it were McAffee Anti-Virus.

I need to get a policy pushed out to disable any requests for new notifications from websites…

Company’s gitlab to have notifications pipeline (that I usually monitor when I push)

I use it for my self hosted apps, but yeah, it’s rarely useful for websites in the wild.
