I tried the app a couple of weeks ago after hearing about it elsewhere. It looks interesting but as someone just looking to use a potential app, it really put me off with these two "conversations" that you can't delete, remove yourself from or permanently mute/ignore:
- "Session Updates" - I assume this is news about the app itself, like new features. However the messages here all refer to "Loki Messenger" rather than "Session".
- "Loki News" - Has weekly updates about "Loki". When I first installed the app I had no idea what "Loki" was or why I should care.
Messages to these trigger notifications and everything else a message would normally do. They're confusing and annoying and the first thing you see when you finish the onboarding process.

I'm guessing that's because Session has no other connectivity except through the Loki network. I do recall reading that the app only talks to the Loki entry node. And if that's true, it would be a very good feature.
