Hi guys curious if in the past with reddit did you use push notifications (via first party app, 3rd party apps, or desktop).

Do you wish it could be expanded to Lemmy?

Or do you think push is to addicting/bad?

Curious on your thoughts

    When I used the official Reddit app before I saw the light of RIF, I had push notifications. I didn’t have them on RIF except when I opened it, and I found that to be a lot nicer on my psyche.

    I have email notifications enabled on Lemmy right now, which turns into a push. But I don’t really mind as much because the conversations here are nicer, and it’s usually replies to me trying to be helpful, which are nice to see.

      One thing I like about lemmy (at least for now) is since communities are a lot smaller than reddit their is a limit of new content that can be generted per day (if you sub to 20 or less comunities).

      This kinda helps avoid the reddit doom scrooling (I’m guilty of this especially during the blackouts and spez issues).
