Today's article is a 'short' article...

[KGIII]

I decided to try another short article. The last one got a comment indicating that it was appreciated. That was from a regular reader that has been around since near the start of the site. They aren't someone from here and I have no idea how they found the site to begin with.

Anyhow, Linux Mint (specifically Cinnamon in this case) has notifications. You can clear them out with a GUI or you can do so with your keyboard. My hands are more often near the keyboard than they are the mouse. So...

Short: Clear Linux Mint Notifications • Linux Tips

This is another short article, as I continue to explore the format, and is simply about how you can clear Linux Mint notifications.

It's not complicated. If it was, it wouldn't be a 'short'. Feel free to opine on the matter of occasional short articles.

An article, to the point, accurate, useful to the majority of users, finishes before my eyes glaze over....Brilliant !

And it is appreciated.

There are topics (I think) that are worth covering but don't require 600+ words to explain. It's also nice to have an article that doesn't require a bunch of typing, research, and time.

Handy to know but Mint Cinnamon automatically clears notifications...default is 4 seconds and now doesn't have the icon showing on the Panel...you have to add it.

I like the notifications - and like that it has them there for when the computer is not attended.

I pretty much get 'free' energy, so shutting down is just not something I do. I did have a bit of an outage and the things not on a UPS got rebooted while the system switched over. But, I often have an 'uptime' measured in months.

The computers spend a lot of time without someone sitting at them. Those notifications can be handy.
