When enabled, the function forces notifications that fall underneath the classes talked about above to cover inside a ‘X extra notifications’ tablet on the backside of your common notification panel, with ‘X’ denoting the variety of filtered notifications.
As seen within the screenshots above, with no filter possibility chosen, the background app KDE Join’s standing notification seems in the principle notification panel (first screenshot). With the ‘Background actions’ notification filter toggled on, solely KDE Join’s app icon is seen in a separate ‘extra notifications’ bubble (second screenshot).
