You neglected to remember the popup that appears after thirty seconds of inactivity to inform you that new content is available. It appears that certain news websites now have that...


That's because of service workers informing you of new content. You don't care, I don't care, but someone just had to nerd out and notify you of the realtime capabilities of this site. It's usually found on news sites and in that context it does make sense but then again you would've seen it if browsing to another link on the site.
