    No volume, vibrate, led, or push notifications. If you want my attention badly enough, call. And I will screen the call and text you back at my convenience. I will not be on a leash. Now excuse me while I doomscroll for 2 to 17 hours.

      This comes up every once in a while. Appparently there are a surprising number of people on Lemmy who are still commited to using audible notifications.

        There are a surprising number of people who have notifications on for stuff that needs to mind its own business.

      Me. I work freelance. I can’t afford to miss an email.

      The trick is only to have important inbox notifications on and no notifications for any other apps. Then you don’t need to put your phone on silent.

    I know I’ve heard it in memes before but I’ve forgotten what it sounds like. Though I’d probably recognize it if I heard it again, maybe?

    I recently learned that the annoying two-tones “whistle” notification is/was Twitter, so that sort of counts right?

    Put everything on silent and non-vibrate. Disable any sort of blinky or flashy light that seeks your attention. Abandon civilization brother. Be free.

    Unless grinder got a custom notification sound, saying something like “Im gonna prone bone til you gone” i would probably write it off as some message notification

    No, I would have no idea. It’s a standard notification? You can’t choose the sound? If it was a ladies site I’d say “vibrate” would be the obvious choice, but for a gay men’s site, no idea.
