A: Hey there! Guess what's new with Chrome?
B: Not sure, what's up?
A: Google's gonna make Chrome quieter! They're adding a feature that automatically stops annoying notifications from websites you don't use often.
B: Wow, that sounds great! I get so many pop-ups and alerts.
A: Yeah, Google says most of us never interact with those notifications anyway. It's only for sites where we don't engage much and send lots of notifications.
B: So it'll help me focus better on important stuff?
A: Exactly! And if you want to change the setting, Google will let you know when they're removing notification permissions, so you can switch it back if you prefer.
B: Cool! I can also turn off this feature altogether if I don't want their help.
A: That's right! They found that this change didn't affect the total number of clicks on notifications, meaning people weren't really engaging with them to start with.
B: Sounds like a win-win situation for us users! Thanks for letting me know about it!
A: No problem! Happy browsing now! 😄
