My favorite feature is when there is a message in a chat you are already looking at and you have to click out of it and back in before the notification will go away
You're underselling it! Sure, what you discribe would be a nice feature, but what makes it truly great is the combination with a slow and unresponsive UI. It's thought provoking genius!
Did it register the click or do I have to try again? Maybe I should meditate to fully harvest the value of this 0.5s Zen moment, because it also might just take much longer this time? Does a tree fall, when there is no one to witness it? Does a click matter if it is inside Teams?
I thought that was just me! My second favorite feature is that a full 75% of my notifications in a day are Facilitator bot messages, which I need to repeatedly click out of and into to clear.
I get this on FB's Messenger, it notifies me that there's a new message in the thread. Yes, it's my message, the one I just sent, thanks Meta, I'm aware of it.
Or if someone reacts to your message while you're still in that chat, you need to go to a completely separate notification feed to clear that one (though maybe they fixed that one... Or maybe I just automatically ignore that other feed because it only ever has noise).
