This audio is identified as a Facebook Messenger sound from 2013, reflecting the brief alert style used by mobile messaging apps of that period. Short notification tones later became common ingredients in screen recordings, comedy sketches, tutorials, and nostalgia edits because audiences could understand their meaning immediately. It remains useful whenever an editor needs to imply digital conversation without showing a full interface. Similar editing contexts also use a Discord notification, although each tone evokes a different generation and type of online chat.
