For the first time ever, I’m getting Reddit notifications, outside of when I get a dm or a comment/post reply from someone. 🧐 Hmm, I wonder if that’s just coincidence…
Anyone else? Or just me?

I know when I had mostly stopped engaging with facebook, it started giving me absurd notifications, like “someone you don’t know posted something in a group you never check.” It starts looking kind of desperate.
I used to be on Facebook Dating, when I go awhile without logging in to facebook, it seems to remember that I was on it and starts telling me about potential matches with photos that seem to slowly get more attractive.
I hated that. “X posted a photo that is getting attention” and? Good for them, why do they need me to look if it’s already getting attention… 🙄
Did you install the official Reddit app? Same happened to me when I did. They seem to enable notifications for recommended posts once you log in. I turned that shit off and deleted the app. I don’t want any settings changed by the mere act of logging in somewhere.
I used the official app on my phone and I had turned all notifications off. I left for good before the black out and never looked back. Then miraculously a week after the blackout the app turned on notifications and started spamming my phone. I deleted that shit immediately.
Which is exactly what Twitter did. Even with all notifications off, I still received several daily tweets about what Elon had tweeted. So I uninstalled it. Thankfully the PWA isn’t quite as bad, but it still pesters me with tweets that it knows I’m more likely to engage with, because they are negative.
I deleted Reddit from my phone and I have all email notifications off, I don’t get Reddit Notifications anymore.
You won’t get any notifications if you’ve [deleted].
Only have it because of my 🌽 account 🥶
Frozen corn is delicious.
No bullshit official app, no account, no notifications. Easy.
Same they seem to be spamming, I’m getting shit I haven’t even visited in forever
