Chrome’s New Update: Say Goodbye to Annoying Notification Overload!
Google Chrome is giving your notifications the silent treatment! The browser will now automatically revoke notification permissions for sites you ignore, reducing alert overload. With less than 1% engagement on alerts, Chrome’s new feature aims to boost user focus and engagement by silencing the chatter. Enjoy your newfound peace!

Hot Take:
Finally, Google Chrome is acting like the helpful friend who knows when to leave the party before it gets awkward.

It’s about time someone told those pesky sites to chill out!
