I'll add that since updating from 18.04 to 20.04, Pidgin has been doing this very consistently. Whenever I have Pidgin focused and then switch focus to another window, some time later, I get a notification saying:
Pidgin Internet Messenger
"#foo" is ready
where #foo is the name of the last chat tab I had focused with Pidgin. This "new" behavior is atrocious. I'm not sure what changed in Pidgin and/or Gnome, but this is a terrible user experience.
