Alert Bell

Just recently, when you click the alert bell, a drop down opens to reveal all alerts for like the last week. It used to only show just the most current. Is there a way to clear that listing? Thanks

“Mark Read” at the bottom?

it does not matter. I just don’t remember the alert retaining so many days of listings. Use to be if, for example there was a #2 over the bell, when you would click on it, you would see those 2 new notifications.
