I'm liking these improvements, but what I'd really like to see fixed is notifications on Mac (Big Sur, 11.6). They stopped working many, many months ago and are a really critical part of the web experience. I've seen others report this issue, so I'm sure I'm not alone. I've confirmed that notifications are allowed for the site and in the system settings. I've previously have raised this through 'Send Feedback' but have had no response and find that this is still not working.

Pinned tabs not persisting across sessions is another ongoing issue (but I've given up on using them now!)

MarkBarbieri Can you try a demo: https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgauntface.github.io%2Fsimple-push-demo%2F&data=04%7C01%7Cjoshbo%40microsoft.com%7Cc0f380186ff047a1627108d8cf2c677b%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637487136921017420%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=CJFsMdg9xFm0KvKXJx7dTrubaicr2KkSnc04yTUDMDM%3D&reserved=0

If it fails, navigate Edge to edge://push-internals. This is a diagnostic page that captures push messaging errors. Please provide the contents of this page, although you can remove "Endpoint", "Device ID", and "Channel ID". The last section about errors is most important.

josh_bodner The push demo gives me the prompt to allow notifications when I enable them on the page, but fails with a CORS error when I try to Send a Push (see attached)

edge://push-internals output also attached.

Thanks

  MarkBarbieri that might be a red herring. I hadn't noticed when I sent it, but that demo site appears to be broken in general (it fails with that same error in every browser...) If you have a site that you normally use that can send you notifications on-demand, could you get the same info when you see a failed notification from it? Otherwise, how about a different demo site like https://webpushdemo.azurewebsites.net/?

    josh_bodner OK, that site worked, but still no notification. I tested that site on Windows (Edge Dev release) and I get notifications there, but not on the Mac.
    
    Let me know if the attached is not enough info.
    
    This is another simple one that works on Windows, but not Mac

    Interestingly it doesn't add any output to edge://push-internals
