I get like a few notifications a day, mostly just ntfy notification from all my autotion script telling me was something successfull or watchtower thelling me what docker container was update so that I know that it is cause of the update that something started behaving wrongly.
Everything else I ignore with passion, even have notification sound's and vibration turned off for specific app's so I don't get sound or vibration even if my phone is on full blast. Help's a lot.
You just do. I read the pop-up, if it’s important I open the app if not I do nothing and the notification just sits there. Also end of the day I just scroll trough my email inbox and see if there is anything important. If not I do nothing. And then once in a while I just purge certain emails based on the address. Inbox zero is just a waste of mental effort to me.
Except for the font size, this is my wife. 4,234 notifications, phone explodes sound every time she clicks something. "Sorry babe." After the 3000th time, maybe mute it when we're in bed?
If you've been using a phone at night at max brightness since 2011ish, chances are you have no rods left in your eyes and you're blind unless its at max brightness.
Like how people who blow their hearing out with loud music turn up the volume to continue to hear the music. It's a destructive cycle.
Personally, auto brightness can't get dim enough at night, and indoors during the day it's annoying seeing the brightness shift everytime the lighting changes even a little. It's great if you're in the sun tho, it can go brighter than the manually set "max" brightness.
I never understood why people thought manually closing the apps was good to begin with.
I have been letting them stack since iOS 6 ish or something, even when sometimes it was "needed" (we didn't have as much RAM as we do today).
Nowadays the real challenge is to keep apps alive/opened if you ask me lol, multitasking ain't the best thing ever, especially on Android (I switched).
Back in the day, Androids memory management system sucked ass and iOS was better but not by much so there was a good reason to. Maybe myth was the wrong word, more like obsolete as it hasn't been true for many revisions as MM has been optimized tons since then
