I'm using Firefox 71.0 (64-bit) in Windows 10. I'm wanting to turn on Push Notifications for Twitter. I've already "allowed" the notifications in Firefox for Twitter, but when I try to turn the Push Notifications on in Twitter, I get a message that reads:

"Unsupported Browser

It looks like your browser doesn’t support push notifications."

Am I doing something wrong?

Easiest is in this case to do this via "Tools -> Page Info -> Permissions" and remove the checkmark on Default and set a checkmark on Allow.

You can also use "Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security".

  • Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security
    Cookies and Site Data -> Manage Permissions

Make sure to use the correct protocol, in this case https://

Any messages in the Web Console about service workers ?

Are you using "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" to clear the cookies when you close Firefox ?

If that is the case then try to create a cookie allow exception for https://twitter.com

Hi, cor-el

Yes, I use "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed."

From the Twitter . com Push Notifications page, I opened the Web Console. The attached 2 images is what I see.

Can you please tell me how to create a cookie allow exception for Twitter? Many thanks.
