Does xenforo.com have push notifications enabled ?

I’m trying to trial push notifications.

Does Xenforo.com have them enabled ?

Is there an iOS requirement ? Safari requirement ?

Yes.

Safari push notifications coming to macOS and iOS

@Chris D - A long time ago we talked about why Safari doesn't support push notifications for XF (and just about everything else). Last night I was looking through Safari Technology Preview's experimental features and saw "Built-In Web Notifications" and "Push API". I enabled the push API and...

It appears that there is a minimum iOS requirement for push notifications

Apple mobile devices running iOS 16.4 and newer can install the PWA using the Add to Home Screen feature in Safari. This step is required in order to enable push notifications on iOS devices.

Yeah..it takes a newer version of IOS to enable it... I was not sure if it was 16.4 or 16.5.
They are up to 17.0.3... so honestly if ones device supports it, you should be running the latest available. You can't expect old versions to support more modern functions. I'm pretty sure it was detailed what the minimal IOS version was when Apple finally "broke the barrier".
And even then... I have had a couple of occasions where I have to disable then re-enable push notifications to get them on my IOS device.
