The notification spam on your phone is something that did not exist in the 2000s, no?

I remember that with the advent of smartphones suddenly all websites wanted to send status updates...

No, and I would've wanted it for the IRC channels I was in at the time, just as I typically want notifications (that I can enable/disable at will) for some chats I'm in on more modern realtime communication software.
