Irritating. I'm trying to extricate myself from Google entirely, but in the meantime I've used uBlock Origin to block the notification.

With what rule? I looked and it didn't seem like there was a good way to target it.

Should be able to click and block it in the Element Picker mode.

For most cases that works fine, but it looks like the xpath uses generated identifiers, so any time they push a change to the Gmail UI the rule won't match any more.

Can you go up a level and block more vaguely?

[-] wmassingham@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

No, same issue with the parent elements. Eventually you'd be blocking too widely and block the whole thing.
