Minor: Hide notification badges when Do Not Disturb is on #284

Closed teamcons closed 6 days ago

teamcons commented 2 weeks ago

Problem

Red notification bubbles are a common element to say "hey look here ! Something is happening !", and can be super distracting

When on Do Not Disturb i dont want to be disturbed. That includes seeing a red badge that tells me "there is something !" Lest i just take a quick look to see if important, and my ADHD switches to "now we are doing something else"

Hiding the red badge of notifications is a bit pointless if the dock has those too

Proposal

Make the dock aware of Do Not Disturb status : If it is on, do not render any badge

Or render for all apps a circled gray badge with no number and a strikethrough, to suggest "there is no badge, DnD is on"

Prior Art (Optional)
