--- Comment #7 from Forest <[email protected]> ---
Assuming this report is about the status icon (not the notification) the bug
was introduced here:

https://invent.kde.org/plasma/discover/-/merge_requests/886
"notifier: Only show the tray notifier on next notification time"

The author was apparently trying to address this issue:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=466693

Unfortunately, they misunderstood the differences between a status icon and a
notification. (They may have misunderstood the original complaint as well.)
They tried to resolve the bug by making the status icon behave like a
notification. Of course, this broke the status icon, which some of us actually
use and depend upon.

That MR was a mistake. I can submit a new MR that will fix it.

It's possible that some users might be annoyed by the status icon persistently
showing the update status (which is its job). If such people exist, the correct
solution for them would be to disable the status icon, and rely on the
notifications to alert them to new updates.
