Description

On MacOS 10.13.4 with Keybase 1.0.47-20180410052738+f705a9510f, I notice unread notifications (menubar icon is colorful) and it's not clear how to dismiss the notifications. Clicking on the notifications themselves doesn't mark them read. They simply sit there, marked as unread, until they don't. I haven't noticed a pattern yet, although I haven't tried very hard to find one.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the notification behavior on the reported MacOS 10.13.4 and Keybase 1.0.47 build, then determine when a “New Follower” notification remains unread. Done means identifying a reliable dismissal path or reproducing and documenting the underlying failure with a regression check.
