Like, are you ever about in public, hear that ding and think “ah yes, homosexuality.”

      I never used twitter, but I still know what the notification sound sounds like because of memes

    The only thing I think when I hear someone else’s notification is, why the fuck is it so loud and why the fuck aren’t they silencing it?

    Does anyone have the sound on these days? My volume is set to 0 most of the time, I have no idea what any of the sounds are now.

      I turned on my volume the other night to make sure I heard my alarm, and forgot to turn it off. I learned a lot of notification sounds that day. Or would have if I’d paid attention beyond “Oh, a notification”

      Only older people from what I’ve seen. At least, whenever I hear a ping out in public, it’s always someone older

      So, to answer your question, no, not really

    Who keeps notifications on? Anything? I put my phone on silent back in 2012 and I’ve never looked back.

    Edit. Sorry, to clarify. I turn notification sounds off. Still get the actual pop up… Some not important ones get total silents but still pop a bubble so at some point I’ll look at it. For those things that need to be noticed i make sure they vibrate and pop up on my watch. Still not a sound to be heard.

      Me. I work freelance. I can’t afford to miss an email.

      The trick is only to have important inbox notifications on and no notifications for any other apps. Then you don’t need to put your phone on silent.

    You know I actually turned the notifications off on that app and I regularly keep my phone on silent… So even though I have used the app I don’t actually know what noise it makes.

    If I find out then I’ll 100% be making it my ringtone to see which of my friends/colleagues react

    No, I would have no idea. It’s a standard notification? You can’t choose the sound? If it was a ladies site I’d say “vibrate” would be the obvious choice, but for a gay men’s site, no idea.

    No volume, vibrate, led, or push notifications. If you want my attention badly enough, call. And I will screen the call and text you back at my convenience. I will not be on a leash. Now excuse me while I doomscroll for 2 to 17 hours.

    No I didn’t, but you made me curious so I just looked it up.

    It’s not a sound I remember hearing anywhere, but I certainly could have and not known what it was at the time so ignored it.
