Gee, maybe Signal shouldn’t keep harassing people to turn on notifications and take no for an answer?
Thoughts, @Mer__edith?
@Mer__edith Oh, and would you look at that, right on cue…
The opposite of “yes” is “no”, not “not now” or “ask me later”.

Ellie 🏴🏳️⚧️@aral @Mer__edith this kind of sus shit is certainly not helping against any of the FUD around signal.
@31113 @Mer__edith Thing is, I really don’t think it’s on purpose. It was, of course, in the Moxie days (when it was implemented) because, well, Moxie… but I like to think they’re either afraid to turn off an anti-feature they see as driving “engagement” (why that’s important for an app like Signal is beyond me) or they just don’t see it as a priority and haven’t gotten around to it yet. I sincerely hope it’s the latter and that the issue will get addressed. Especially in light of this latest news.
