Right that's not a bug, see my reply to oleg, here: New mobile notifications are worse - Microsoft Tech Community.
We may revert the notification bell, although we are trying to simply our code base so we can ensure pages quickly load no matter which device you use.
If there is strong opinion from desktop users that they want the bell back I am totally open to it 🙂 Just Like Olegs post and I will use that as a barometer to measure opinion.

I can't speak on behalf of others and don't want to change anyone's opinion about anything,
but the way I see it, this is a fundamental thing.
it's like a family sitting on a table talking to each other about removing Internet or TV or from their list of needs and be like, okay we can still live without them.
sure that's not a life and death situation but Still, it's an inconvenience and is like living in the past 2 or 3 decades.
about having to see notifications, not even the last 5 but the entire thing, using Ajax and not having to reload the page, there is another popular example
lots of forums and communities I've joined use that and it does exactly what I described. they've got it right and it's a convenient user experience, on mobile and desktop.
here are the pricing for self-hosted plan
they also offer a free demo but I can't link it here since it requires a name and email verification first.
