✔️Weird "notifications" bug in Youtube (latest snapshot)

(Not sure if this is known, couldn't find anything when searching.)
When opening a Youtube video, if the title starts with a brackets (parenthesis) containing a number, it will show up in the tabs as a "notification" icon. The brackets can contain other text as well after the number. Any number above 9 will show as "+".

@LonM OK thanks for that. I've always thought sites used some kind of Javascript "magic" to display those things in browser tabs.

@Pathduck Some sites do this themselves, other sites don't. I've seen cases where both vivaldi and the site added multiple notification numbers in the favicon.
