<![CDATA[Blue dot on workspace icons?]]>Can anyone tell me what this blue dot does and how to disable it?

In some cases when I open the workspace it goes away, other times it stays there no matter what and it's kind of annoying.

  • Disabling messenger notifications
  • Restarting opera
  • Disabling and enabling workspaces

    • ...does not fix this issue 😑

    Also on some "workspaces" (most of them), my tabs look like this:

    So that solution is a no go 🤣

    I'll give the messenger notification a shot.

    Thanks.

If you go to the workspace and switch to every tab in it, the dot should go away.

    I don't think there's a way to turn it off unless turning off messenger notifications at the bottom of the sidebar settings works for workspaces too.
