> I don't feel like that at all because on all of my devices, notifications are opt-in. I get notifications for services I use (mostly IM). They aren't granular though, you either opt in to all or you get none. This is particularly annoying when you're using something like LetGo or OfferUp, because you basically need to opt in to receive messages from people interested in buying your second-hand stuff. But once you do, they take the opportunity to spam you with engagement boosting ads querying you if you have anything you want to list or telling you "we've selected these sales for you." It's an extremely unpleasant design pattern for anyone who values their own time and attention.
