You guys still check notifications? I have Infinite Scroll of notifications I never care enough about to spend time on doing anything about.

That would be anxiety personified for me

I used to do this but it ended up in me missing notifications I actually cared about

The best solution is as someone else mentioned, just mute apps that send obnoxious notifications when you see them

Different notification sounds for different kinds of notifications has been big as well, one for messages, a different one for twitch streams, and another for everything else that normally gets ignored

I wondered how I replied to my friends. Then I recalled that I don't have one.
