If a particular application is causing you annoyance then you can silence it in:
Settings > Notifications Or rather than completely silence it, just disable its popups and still get a notification dot in the top bar. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825710 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.
