1. A method comprising:

  • receiving, by a computing device, at a first particular time, first notification data indicative of a first event within an execution environment at the computing device;

    responsive to receiving the first notification data, outputting, by the computing device, at a first intensity level, a first alert associated with the first notification data;

    receiving, by the computing device, at a second particular time after the first particular time, second notification data indicative of a second event within the execution environment at the computing device, wherein the second event is different than the first event, and wherein the second notification data is different than the first notification data;

    responsive to receiving, by the computing device, an indication of user interaction with the computing device between the first particular time and the second particular time, outputting, by the computing device, at the first intensity level, a second alert associated with the second notification data; and

    responsive to not receiving, by the computing device, the indication of user interaction with the computing device between the first particular time and the second particular time, outputting, by the computing device, at a second intensity level that is less than the first intensity level, the second alert associated with the second notification data, wherein the second alert is of a same type as the first alert.
