...What?
This whole article was sprung from a discussion of exactly that case, because users often simply don't delete notifications. It's very common for users to have years of undismissed notifications stacked up under the notification bell, and it's not a good experience to load them all at once.
Ah, like smartphone/Windows notifications, not webpage popups? Yeah, always wonder how my dad doesn't miss everything, despite always having 20+ notifications.
Yeah, or even the inbox in lemmy. It's a surprisingly common thing.
