    If you are using Android, I really recommend taking a look at the notification settings of an app. A lot of times it’s possible to disable only specific types of notifications.

      Yis :3… if an app sends me a notification for nothing it’s more just a matter of principle tho 😆 I mean… 9/10 times there’s probably some open source, or at least more basic alternative that works for me that doesn’t have all of that unnecessary stuff

      If it’s notifications for things that are clearly useful, but I just don’t care about, I’ll usually look into configuring it tho :3

      I remember this and thought the apps I was trying to configure had disabled it/it was locked down by one UI 7. This comment made me dig around in settings and I found it for anyone else stuck with one UI.

      Notifications > Advanced settings > Manage notification categories for each app (scroll to bottom)

      This seems like such a stupid thing to hide in advanced settings when it is enabled by default on older versions but at least it is still available?
