amio,

No, but I tend to disable a bunch of the categories. If it makes it hard to avoid BS/irrelevant/uninteresting/"fake" notifications, notification perms go away, or the whole app does, usually with a free one-star rating. (As if that realistically matters)

slazer2au,

I let the apps have a chance, but if they drop a notification when it wasn’t needed I remove the privilege. Unless it’s a game, then it’s insta muted.

Gallardo994,

Literally me. I’ll allow all the notifications in the world until they become annoying. Then it’s insta deny.

I get notifications for text messages, nothing else. The phone is not the boss of me. I am the boss of the phone.

PapaStevesy,

Not the apps I want notifications for.

bighatchester,

I usually don’t allow notifications for most apps other than messaging and some YouTube . Anything else like Lemmy I just check when I open the app .

I only allow messaging services that my friends and family use, calendar, and alarms.

I check everything else often enough on my own without any notifications.

Only notifications I want are calls/texts and my security cameras.

I don’t care to know if I got a reply on YouTube, or Lemmy, or a new email. I can always check that stuff at my leisure.

CaptObvious,

As few as possible, meaning immediate communication apps and a couple that monitor devices. A few more can notify if they’re running.

I have notifications active, but notification sound default to none. For apps I want a sound reminder (calendar and pm in chat apps), I set another sound.

LegionEris,

Nope. I got the ADHD. I need the robot to remind me about things. It’d make some of you sick how many notifications I get. I have notifications turned on for every channel in two Discord servers. Traffic on them is usually slow to modest, but still. Lemmy is the only platform I use daily that isn’t allowed any notifications because I’ve been using forums for about twenty years and don’t often forget to check in here.

jjjalljs,

Most of them.

I get notified for

  • Calls
  • SMS
  • WhatsApp (yuck, but a few friends use it)
  • Signal
  • Tinder
  • DuoLingo

Tinder seems to be “buggy” and won’t accept that I want to be notified for new messages and matches, but not for anything else.

Nothing else is supposed to send me a notification. I don’t really use social media (other than this, if it counts), so that helps.

Mr_Blott,

Disable everything except email and WhatsApp, also SMS for deliveries

Why the fuck would you have BBC News notify you that Pol Pot won Strictly Come Dancing?!?

Never understood why people would leave notifications on for everything, except to have their phone beep in public to make them seem popular, maybe?

pdxfed,

It’s all personal preference but I’d go crazy if I had email notifications on. If it’s urgent and I want you to have instant access to me you should be able to text me. Otherwise, email is something I look at at beginning or end of day. Same for work. It’s well documented at this point how destructive interruptions and distractions are to reaching deeper levels of thought, engagement and productivity…and that is not restricted to the work world.

Mr_Blott,

Yeah I have three emails - business (self employed, always on), personal (always notify but no sound), Hotmail (orders and spam, fuck off don’t notify)

Everything else can fuck the fuck off

WeLoveCastingSpellz,

I have an anazing solution for you, just keep BBC news uninstalled?

garbagebagel,

My dad has all YouTube notifications turned on for every channel he follows. He also has the sound on max at all hours of the day. I’ve asked if he wants help turning them off and he told me he likes it that way, so I’m pretty sure he’s a psychopath.

Everything disabled except calls, iCloud stuff (iMessage, health, calendar, etc), emails, Snapchat and local weather alerts.

Dedh,

I remove permissions for notifications from all apps that I am able to except for sms/text & phone calls.

m105,
@m105@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I also have all notifications disabled, except the ones I really need (texts, calls, calendar, email and others like this). I don’t like that every time I look at my phone to have tens or hundreds of notifications that I am not interested in, I want to have only what I need to see.
