[Solved] See who sent a notification

Hi all,

I got this notification on my laptop: https://imgur.com/LhTxEwF

Is there a way to see which process sent this notification (presumably via notify-send)? Is that a virus? Any ideas?

Thanks

Did you give some web page permission to notify you?

It looks like I did. I see computerworld.com in the browser's notifications settings section. Thanks for the help, cfr.

For a more generic solution, dbus-monitor is your friend.
