Problem

When opening the webapp on a new device, it shows notifications for all new chats. This creates a poor user experience as the user is flooded with notifications for messages they may have already seen on another device.

Proposed Solutions

  1. Reset to nothing - On a new device, don't show any chat notifications initially
  2. Time-based threshold - Only show notifications for chats within a certain age (e.g., last day or last week)

Expected Behavior

The notification system should be smarter about what it considers "new" when a user accesses the app from a new device for the first time.
