I added +1 to this, since this notification is really irritating and not
really useful.

For example, I have to use Skype and Teams for work, and every time
someone writes a message, I get "<application> is ready" on the screen
top and it just hangs there, without any useful information, even
without the received message.

Also, as someone mentioned earlier, when a browser finishes downloading
something and when you click on the "Show in folder" - if the Nautilus
is already open, it will throw the useless "is ready" notification.

In software development, or in some other cases, where you run the build
job that runs longer than a few seconds - in this context, this
notification would, in my opinion, make some sense.

Notifications can be disabled per app, but it demands 2 clicks for every app in 
the list, and there is too many of them.
At least, adding the option to turn off all per-app notifications would be 
helpful - that way we could allow notifications which are needed.

Cheers!

Title:
  Remove "Application is ready" notification

Status in GNOME Shell:
  New
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The "Application is ready" notification is pointless, really. Say, I
  click on the open downloads folder button in Firefox and GNOME Shell
  gives me a notification saying "Application is ready" but doesn't open
  the notification. I'm totally expecting an app to open because I
  actively initiated it.

  As a workaround, I'm using a GNOME extensions "Focus my Window" which
  removes the "Application is ready" message and focuses the app window
  automatically. However, this cannot be treated as a solution.
