I have notifications enabled on mobile, as I'm sure a few other people do. However recently, instead of getting the notifications, I get this instead

It wasn't so bad because I could still tap it and go to the thread in question, however today I got this one instead

Not sure why GTPlanet is suddenly being considered a source of spam, according to Chrome.
 
Interesting, this is the first I've heard of such an issue.

I did some research and apparently Chrome rolled out a notification spam detection feature using on-device machine learning last year. If it decides notifications look spammy based on the words used in them, it blocks them.

My theory is that it didn't like the titles or volume of notifications from some threads or direct message conversations you were subscribed to. It looks like this is a setting you'll have to control on your device.
