LPT: If you remove any and all notifications, including from social media and messages, your life is a lot less stressful. I did it and I really enjoy. I’m not live text answering anyone, if it’s urgent call me.
Exactly. I leave text notifications on so that I see them right away and never have to take a phone call. All other notifications can be disabled. If it’s urgent, you can text me.
Depends on which phone OS you use, it varies. iOS method is different from AOSP/Lineage method is different from Samsung is different from Google Dialer so on and so fourth.

I also unsubscribed from 90% of the emails I get, and I made my phone not ring if the number is not in my contacts. It really does reduce stress.
how do you do this?
On my phone it’s just a toggle in the settings.
What about on Samsung?

Is lemmy social media??
Lemmy and YT. I don’t have notifications. They are poop time / lines apps. Sometimes i’m bold and use them before bed too
