I've noticed that notifications don't seem to work at all in Orion save for one push notification test site that I tried:
https://www.bennish.net/web-notifications.html response from site: Push notification: "Notification #(...) from www.bennish.net This is the text body of the notification. Pretty cool, huh?"

These test sites don't seem to be supported:
https://cleverpush.com/en/test-notifications/ response from site: "Notifications aren't supported"

https://pushalert.co/demo response from site: nothing happens
https://pushassist.com/push-notification-demo/ response from site: nothing happens
All 4 sites work in Vivaldi
3 of 4 work in Safari (pushassist.com does not work, response from site: nothing happens)
I'm not sure how relevant these test sites are, but it's very telling.
In Orion there are no notifications from youtube, gmail, reddit (and twitter). I don't know about Instagram or facebook at the moment,
I will update if they differ from the other sites, I will also try to check Netflix in the near future.
And if other sites do work, I haven't come across any, the sites listed above are the ones I use the most.
It's most unlikely that it's a setting issue with the browser or macOS (Ventura 13.2 on M1 Macbook air/iMac 27-inch 2017) since:
- All settings in macOS are correct and all other notifications work (Safari [Version 16.3 (18614.4.6.1.5)] is problematic sometimes)
- I have allowed notifications in the Orion browser
- Vivaldi and Chrome work perfectly, while Safari works when it decides to work.
- I made Orion the default browser (this seems to be required for Safari in order to receive notifications)
Please make push notifications possible, it's of high importance and priority for me in order to actually use the browser full time as a default browser.
Sidenote:
To compare with Safari, Safari has been very glitchy when it comes to notifications;
it randomly works and then randomly stops working only to work and then suddenly
stop working again for no reason on two devices, in either works on both or only M1 I think or none of them; it's difficult to be sure.
If this is related to notifications in Orion not working I don't know, but it's worth mentioning.
