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”.

@Mer__edith No, thank you. Please don’t.

Behind every app that won’t take “no” for an answer, there’s a developer that doesn’t understand the concept of consent.

This is a legacy anti-feature, implemented at a time before Signal’s new leadership. I expect better, going forward.

@aral @Mer__edith 100% agree on this.

Please dont copy bad features others built in their app.
