a fucking chat on fucking reddit are you kidding me what?

RIGHT? AND, AND! It's a chat where you can't get rid of the bright flaming red notification until you make the neigh-irreversible decision to either shun a person forever or reply to them.

the only chats i've gotten over the years were spambots

You don't have to reply to make the notification go away. I'm pretty sure you don't even need to interact with the request.

Oh, but you do! I'm one of those autistic people who can't fucking stand flaming red notification icons and have to make them go away.

There's no way to turn off the notification without either clicking "Ignore" or "Reply" (maybe it's "Accept"). It doesn't go away just from reading the message. I even tried to disable the element in my browser, which worked, but then it disabled the normal notification icon too.
