I limit mine to messages and calls because I don’t like the distraction of tons of notifications. Curious what others do

    Messages, phone calls, cameras, financial alerts, and a game discord (only server and game news specifically).

    Been trying to decide on what to allow on my computer/home server.

    But on my phone I allow texts, emails (don’t get many of them), discord (dms and certain chats), phone, and that is probably it. So just communication applications.

    Messaging apps, calendar, the ringer for phone calls, my Lemmy app ( although Connect for Lemmt seems hit and miss on delivering notifications, which is fine by me.)

      Every time I have to manually go into my authenticator I think to myself “I should really turn on your notifications so that I can just do this from the top-menu”

      And then I hit my confirmation, close the app and don’t think about it again until I manually open it again lol

    Calls, text, voice mails, my investment account when a stock sells, news alerts, when the washing machine finishes (so the load doesn’t sit there)

    Like yourself, SMS and phone calls. My bank app also handles authentication of online purchases a bit better with notifications enabled. Everything else is disabled.

    On desktop I have notifications for email as well as those mentioned above.

    I have my phone permanently on Do Not Disturb, and anytime I have a notification I don’t like, I block the app from sending notifications.

    I basically have email, Signal, and missed phone calls left over (but voice messages are blocked).

    Same as OP except I also get notifications for software updates through Obtainium.

    That’s on mobile, on desktop I don’t allow any notifications.

    I only use FOSS apps, so never had to block any apps from sending notifications.

      I’m sure FOSS apps are less intrusive, but they still use notifications surely? I’d generally want a calendar or messager app to send me notifications, but I might want to block a specific app depending on my use case.

    Phone is on vibrate all the time. Signal only, but also have Pushbullet set up so I can send notifications when new movies/tv show episodes are downloaded and added to my Jellyfin.

    I don’t pro actively block any of them, because I do appreciate reminders, but once something starts to get annoying, it’s cut off.
