For the first time ever, I’m getting Reddit notifications, outside of when I get a dm or a comment/post reply from someone. 🧐 Hmm, I wonder if that’s just coincidence…

Anyone else? Or just me?

    I know when I had mostly stopped engaging with facebook, it started giving me absurd notifications, like “someone you don’t know posted something in a group you never check.” It starts looking kind of desperate.

      I used to be on Facebook Dating, when I go awhile without logging in to facebook, it seems to remember that I was on it and starts telling me about potential matches with photos that seem to slowly get more attractive.

    Did you install the official Reddit app? Same happened to me when I did. They seem to enable notifications for recommended posts once you log in. I turned that shit off and deleted the app. I don’t want any settings changed by the mere act of logging in somewhere.
