Loving watching this.

I like that you didn't demonstrate with the standard beepy sound that usually seems to go with it.

along with the disappearing art of cellphone sound design – most phone makers have completely removed the tiny notification LED (a nice slow, unobtrusive blink when you had unread message) – Blackberry even allowed up to 7 different colors for different notifications

Apple pretty much literally wrote the book on Human Interface Guidelines – and then promptly threw it in the dumpster with LiquidGlass

Really fun video. It's very interesting hearing all the ways we could use audio to make things better. I have been wanting to make my own ringtones for my phone, so it's good to keep in mind not being obtrusive. I may have to make a whole suite of notification sounds for my phone, so I can tell what app is trying to notify me.

The pebble watch seems interesting too when it comes to smart watches.

Maybe... I have to think what that will and won't work with for me. Exampe - I NEED the reminder to clean the HVAC filter to speak and be irritating, or it'll never get done.

I get those notifications via Gotify. Though, I suppose, since it's just done with curl, I could easily make some more keys to separate them. Though, setting different sounds on Linux Mobile is VERY limited and half broken. Lost of stuff just doesn't make any sound when it should, and none of them let me use different sounds for different things.

The human-centered design process isn't a structural safeguard against isolation of underrepresented users, unfortunately, making everyone worse off (especially here!). I'm not sure on what we could do on a larger scale to approach this though, beyond awareness

I can’t stand hearing my phone babble needlessly verbose word salad at me while I’m driving, so I keep it muted. But I’m always missing turns and exits as a result.

Just a brief, pleasant sound to let me know I need to do *something* would make a world of difference. I don’t understand why I can’t have this.

I think it would be easier to switch to a system like this if I could modify someone else's template instead of trying to come up with something from scratch.

I'd also be happy to see a library of unobtrusive notification sounds, but that might be harder to share due to copyrights.

But even that aside, culturally, no-one who matters gives a shit. Executives want a flashy equity story. So PMs are ordered to deliver some LLM-based bullshit.

Good UX, as you pointed out, is invisible. And that kind of work doesn't drive capital investment for tech firms. So the enshittification continues.

It explains every Bad UX trend from the past 20 years. Touchscreen UIs everywhere. Web design applied to desktop apps. Chatbots replacing every form of communication. "Smart" watches more concerned with fancy screens than having a battery that lasts more than 48 hours.

IDK how to fix this. Good UX just doesn't attract capital or executive attention.

FWIW...literally the ONLY thing better about the trains around Toronto than the trains here in the Netherlands is the closing door chime. The Dutch NS single beep is so boring.

I was so glad (legitimately, and not sarcastically like most of my neighbours) when Waterloo region adopted it for their trains and I got to listen to it all day long at my previous house.

So I have a channel called 'loud' and then any notification being sent with that channel will make a very noticeable sound that's different from normal notifications.
https://community.home-assistant.io/t/how-to-create-a-custom-notification-channel/740493/4
it's not really documented well for some reason though.
