Disable automation notification on Desktop Mac
I see the badge notification on the desktop even though I closed all notifications from Mac and account and snoozed notifications all day.

Hey geryit, thanks for the screenshot and sorry for jumping in.
At the moment, I’m afraid it’s not possible to completely disable this type of notifications.
However, from what I could find, there may be an update soon that will allow you to control how many notifications you get about automations.

Have you tried unchecking all notifications within the preferences page in the desktop app?

Was going to start using Dropbox but I am not having these stupid chat-like notifications appearing in the Dropbox icon which I am forced to dismiss manually. It's an easy way to lose customers. As it happens, I've uninstalled Dropbox and will be closing my account. It honestly troubles me how large companies like Dropbox and others manage to build software and omit such obvious features. Why bother?
