Except all the mobile browsers. Which makes sense since nobody wants notifications on their phone from a website.

When the alternative is installing an app just for some simple notifications I temporarily want, hell yes I want that option. Let's hope PWAs get there and the browser vendors figure out good UI to deal with them.

As an iOS and MacOS user..... GOOD.

I hate websites trying to give me notifications. I like that I don't get stupid prompts from mobile Safari about that kind of thing.

Instead you get "stupid prompts from mobile Safari" to install apps, which websites mostly do so they can send you push notifications: same prompts, even more annoying (as often the "carrot" is that some of the content or UI requires the app).
