push notifications not working, especially on YouTube
moghaazi just to be clear, were they ever working at any point and then stopped? Our work to enable the browser to send notifications even when it's closed is still very much ongoing (which is why that feature is still behind a flag). It's also possible that another setting is affecting this, so have you recently changed any Edge System settings like to allow Edge to run in the background or to enable Startup Boost?

No, the notifications never worked, only browser extensions notification like (Pi reminder, notifications for Gmail) and a website like (Deezer) when the next song start play, they send me a push notification with the name of the song
SpoilerIt's also possible that another setting is affecting this, so have you recently changedI enabled those two options, but even before that the problem with existing
Spoilerany Edge System settings like to allow Edge to run in the backgroundI enabled MS Edge notification in Ubuntu
Is there a way you can control my browser remotely and see it yourself?

moghaazi oh and also in the meantime, could you get some debug info for us?
- Try a demo: https://gauntface.github.io/simple-push-demo/
- If it fails, navigate Edge to edge://push-internals. This is a diagnostic page that captures push messaging errors.
- Before sharing the contents of that page, remove the "Endpoint", "Device ID", and "Channel ID" data since that's personal. Really, the last section about errors is most important.
