Email 🤮
Bad enough I have to use that shit at work, I’m not using it unless I have to.

As if anyone doesn’t immediately unsubscribe from email notifications or totally ignore them.

Then why do they want app notifications ? It’s even worse than email, all those red squares with numbers and sounds drive me insane, and i can not keep a particular piece of content with me for later re-reading (like i can archive an email). If people just unsubscribe from emails they do not want to receive, and spam those that keep invading, the mail box will be functional in no time, and people can also just create a 2nd email and download a 2nd email app for hobbys and news (several have a gmail and a hotmail at least).

You’d have to ask them. In my opinion, app notifications are ephemeral. I can dismiss them and I don’t care. While emails should be important. I don’t want to soft through a bunch of useless junk when I’m looking for important stuff like bank statements or whatever.

Huh? That’s not what I was talking about. Email at work is hell, no notifications, no accounts could ever kill more souls than CCing.

There’s also web push. You can send push notifications straight to someone’s browser, no need for a dedicated app anymore. Not sure if patreon has implemented this, but they could if they wanted to.
