I just woke to Twitter push notifications on my phone from both TMZ and Elon Musk.

Needless to say I don’t follow these accounts and I don’t have push notifications turned on for either of them. Elon’s getting more and more desperate every day.

Twitter deliberately turned ALL these push notifications back ON, they were most certainly OFF prior. This is on the @Twitterrific account BTW, not on my personal act. I know they were off because Ollie gets too many followers and I didn’t want to be notified each time some one followed. 🤬
@gedeonm It's crazy to imagine one single person can render the platform utterly shit and user-hostile...
@gedeonm Same here. I had all these off previously. This said, since I only have badges on in my iPhone notifications settings, I didn’t see them. To be fair, I didn’t see badges either.
@gedeonm omg. He did. Recently I’ve been getting so many notifications that I never toggled. That bastard (this is happening in the native app for me)

@gedeonm Use a thi… oh. Never mind.

😉

I found their app so annoying I removed it from all my devices a long time ago. Maybe stick to only using it via a web browser?

@jmuscara @gedeonm I’ve resorted to using Tweetdeck in mobile Safari. Yes, even on iPhone. It’s clunky but it still looks like the old chrono feed. I suspect they’ll eventually paywall Tweetdeck though, if they don’t kill it outright.
@gedeonm turned On on my side 🇪🇺 too. Was Off…
@gedeonm I usually have all notifications turned off from all social media apps - controlled at device level. Haven't looked at the birdsite since joining here.
