Message notifications

Hello, I currently have an M1 2020 13" macbook air, running on big sur version 11.1. I am no longer receiving notifications for messages in the upper corner of the screen. I have notifications turned on for messages, I have tried turning the settings off and on again, I have tried restarting the laptop multiple times, and I have used activity monitor to reset notifications/ messages. Does anyone have any other suggestions? I don't notice the notification in the dock very often so I really depend on the pop-up in the corner. Thanks!

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

Hi, thanks for your response! So I just updated to the most recent software and I am still having the problem. It's not that I don't receive messages, I do, and I get the alert on the dock. My messages are already synched across all my apple stuff via the cloud. But I never get the banner in the corner when I receive a text. I do get banners for other things, like software updates.
