Don’t forget the ability to send push notifications. I think that’s one of the main reasons — it turns your whole relationship with a product on its head: you lose control over when you’re engaging, instead they can literally push their services and ads on you.

On Android/Graphene, I recommend permanently turning on do not disturb and adding apps to the allowlist. Opt in to notifications, rather than opting out.

Or just disable notifications for the various apps you don't want to hear from.

That's opting out of notificationse which is subtly different. I'm advocating for something a little different. See if your mind feels less scattered if you don't have any notifications at all. Then allow back in the ones that you feel are essential. A lot of the notifications we get feel important, but aren't.

I've never considered something like this before. I like the way you've phrased this too. I'm going to give this a shot for a few weeks.
