In that case it’s definetly worth it to try this out, just so you have one more notification to disable

Notifications are overrated. I turn them off for the bulk of apps.
Devote one or two small time windows each day for life admin. Outside those windows it shouldn’t be seen or heard.

…I mean for the bulk of apps, sure. For email though?

Context is king. If there’s vital/time-dependent correspondence you’re waiting on, notifications can matter. But email in 2024 is pretty darn transactional, in which case a daily check is enough for most. Notifications for something suggest that I need to drop what I’m doing and attend to whatever arrived. That just doesn’t apply for service provider marketing, purchase receipts, etc.
And then the opsec angle comes into play: axios.com/…/apple-google-requests-push-notificati…

Yeah I have to strongly disagree.
Which is why Proton’s notifications have been encrypted for years.
