Just have Brave snap for now - thinking of adding more.  Will this
apply to ALL snaps installed here if I add more?

What is the best way to do this? CLI?

Glad to hear that! Almost quit using Brave it was so bad. If it is
fixed, how will I know, and how to restore allowing notifications?

Is this a linux thing? Asking because Brave on the Mac just has a small
box, right on a webpage [NOT a popup], with 'update'on it. Click that,
Brave closes all, updates, and reopens all where I was before. Rather
nice. Is that what is being worked on in Linux?

I appreciate the advice - thanks.
