Bug ID: 411753 Summary: KDE Connect spams the desktop with a torrent of old notifications causing the system to become unresponsive. Product: kdeconnect Version: 1.3.5 Platform: Kubuntu Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: major Priority: NOR Component: common Assignee: albertv...@gmail.com Reporter: leftcr...@tutanota.com Target Milestone: --- It takes all the unread unread notifications (on Android it could be dozens or even hundreds, depending on how many apps you have) and dumps them on the screen all at once, with each notification being a separate popup. There are so many notifications that the notifications just turn into black rectangles because the shell can't render them all. It may be worth it to look into just not showing notifications that are older than a few minutes minute. If the user wants to see them, maybe there should be a manual way to bring them up? Another idea would be to just enable mirroring of calls and sms by default, and then have the user enable others manually. I think this may be a good idea regardless, since it will prevent users from getting duplicate email, skype etc. notifications if they have the app on both phone and pc. Maybe Plasma notifications have been revamped in the latest release to guard against this sort of spamming, however this won't fix other desktops where KDEConnect is used. Either way, I don't think anyone wants their desktop to be completely overwhelmed with dozens of notifications like "Tetris was updated"(yesterday) or "new ways to pay with Samsung"(6 hours ago. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
