Here's the problem: developers cut their teeth on twitch video games and so they have no compunction about forcing users to play a video game at every app and every web page we encounter.
It's funny, I frequent a government-owned website for people with disabilities and receiving public benefits, and one of their UI elements is a marquee message "You have a message!" which scrolls from right to left. If you are deft enough to click on it, you will discover that your password expires soon! (Your password always expires soon) That is actually not the important message section of the site but the system notifications that don't tell you anything about your benefits status or applications. It's a laugh riot every time I see one of those message marquees. I've quit clicking on them because I've figured out they are worse than meaningless.
