    I mostly don't like notifications: they keep interrupting me when I'm working. Another reason is that most types of notifications don't persist. I have to react at once, at least enough to write down a reminder, or I'll miss what happened. I prefer the inbox model of email: new stuff lands in the inbox and can check them when I have time, and stuff stays in inbox until I remove it, which means I don't miss stuff so much.

      @liw But I, indeed, have an inbox-like-list of notifications that I can clear. 🤔 Plus, I can disable the interruptive pop-ups without losing this list.

      That's true for my phone with Android and PCs with KDE Plasma.

        @liw I tell all my clients to "please write me an e-mail if you want me to do something".
