Email and chat apps are just about the only notifications I keep. I "archive" any unwanted email right from the notification screen, I report as spam anything I don't like. I hate people who have 4 digits in their email bubbles.

I really wish Apple/Google would do something about notifications, use AI for something useful.

"Hey you haven't read any of your 3454 emails, should I disable notifications for Gmail?"

"Hey you're drowning in notifications with your son texting you 2 hours ago, 4 pages down. Should I prioritize him maybe?"



Four digits? Rookies.


Hey i kept my unread count on gmail at 666 for weeks!


Email bubbles? Rookies.

(you know you can make those bubbles go away?!)

Yes, please, for the love of anything that is holy. Stop the SMS spam!
