I hate asking like this, but I'm testing out sounds, right now it's for notifications, and you can help me by liking and boosting this toot. Thanks!
Do you suppose I could ride this wave and ask people to boost my pinned posts listing all my interests? lol Thanks.
@Fragglemuppet This being the Fediverse, it took me two readings of this toot to feel confident that this is about auditory notifications and not some sort of Bluetooth-connected metal rod for bodily insertion. -_-;
@Fragglemuppet did we break it yet?
@trainguyrom Lol, you may have broke me! I'll be up all night just getting caught up! If a post of mine was gonna go viral I wish it had been saying something, but still, I'm very happy! Today's been a good day!
@Fragglemuppet How does that help you?
@mcourcel I hear the sounds of the pinging notifications and can tell if I chose the right sound for it. When I made this post it was very quiet.

@Fragglemuppet

It took me a second to notice your handle and realize why you would want something to make noise at you. I generally have all devices silenced but now see why you don't.

@rouxdoo Well technically I don't need one since I have a screen reader. This is helpful, but also it's a lot of fun!

@Fragglemuppet

hope you have fun.
it said zero likes and so i did and then it changed to 370. sorry about that.
do you have three different sounds for likes retoots and comments?

@ganbatte Lol, that happens to me too sometimes, mostly with polls, where I only see the votes after a couple of minutes. That's okay, it's fun!

No, I have 1 sound for notifications, which includes favorites and boosts, 1 for comments, and 1 for DMs.

@Fragglemuppet

well, now i feel a liitle better.
still cool to have different sounds.

@Fragglemuppet BOOOM! BEEP! BOOP!

Is onomatopoeia acceptable?

CHIRP!

@pwloftus Lol, sure! I was beep boop bopping at my cat a few minutes ago.
@Fragglemuppet I hope this toot meets you well!
@Fragglemuppet you'll have to share what you go with... Personally I prefer no noises... Especially on toots. I have specific noises for urgent things... Like a jabber from a family member 😉
@craiglambie42 But don't they just use the default sound if you don't have your own? And I don't think you can mute indevidual timelines with fastSM like you can with Tweesecake.
@Fragglemuppet Jabber is like WhatsApp, not on the fediverse as such, just a messaging server
@Fragglemuppet
Well played, Fraggle, well played.
@Guillotine_Jones Lol, I really did only mean the one about my interests. Then I remembered my Go Fund Me was there too, and was actually the first one, and I thought, oh well, if they want to share that one too, that's fine with me.
