Public bug reported: I like the new notifications. Especially how you are not expected to interact with them and they get out of the way when your cursor goes over them.
I do not like how many notifications I get from Pidgin. I have alot of buddies in my various IM accounts. Somebody is invariably signing in at most times. What I have found is that this has decreased the usefulness of all notification bubbles because I no longer pay attention to them. The vast majority of my notification bubbles are for buddies signing in. I rarely notice when somebody talks to me or my power is unplugged. This is the correct behavior according to the wiki https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD but I think the rational should be rethought. Ive filed a brainstorm idea as well. http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/18506/ ** Affects: notify-osd Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: notify-osd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: notify-osd Importance: Undecided Status: New -- notification bubble for buddy sign on is annoying https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/341391 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Notify OSD Developers, which is subscribed to Notify OSD.
