Describe the bug
When I open the new notification center (the one in the right sidebar above the friends list) and switch to the Groups tab, I get bombarded with HTTP 429 too many requests error from the VRC API.

This bug didn't exist in the version I compiled 3 days ago (from this commit), and it also doesn't affect the old notifications tab on the left sidebar.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Compile VRCX from the relevant commit noted below (latest at the time of writing this)
  2. Have too many unread groups notifications (not sure how many are needed to trip VRC's rate limiter)
  3. Open notification center and switch to Groups
  4. Watch the 429 toasts coming

Expected behavior
Have only the visible notifications interact with the API (I guess the app is trying to query, or otherwise do something else, with every notification in this list).
