Gmail constantly refreshes browser tab

I installed Firefox on a new computer running Windows 11. I use the X-notifier plug-in to access my Gmail account but can't get X-notifer to run properly on this new install. I was getting an error message, but now it says "Can always read and change data on this site" yet the envelope icon does not appear in my tool bar like it does on my old computer.

As an alternative, I signed into my Gmail account so I can read my email on a browser page. While that works, it works too well -- as soon as a new email arrives, the browser tab running Gmail pops to the top and interrupts anything that I am doing -- even when I am typing a new email or filling out a form on another tab.

The only way I can deal with this is 1) sign out of Gmail until I want to check it, or 2) pull the Gmail tab to a separate window and minimize it so it can't interfere with what I am doing.

I'd like to know if there is a fix for the X-notifier plug-in or a way to stop the Gmail tab from "taking over" the browser.

Untick "Open automatically" in X-notifier settings for each mail account.

You can pin extensions to the toolbar from the extension button.

Avoid notifications stealing focus by changing alerts.useSystemBackend to true in about:config.

Hi, thanks for the quick reply. I was able to pin the extension to the toolbar. Easy fix! :)

The alerts.useSystemBackend is already set to true but the behavior is continuing. If I have two or more tabs open, the Gmail tab pops to the top whenever mail arrives.
