what the fuck makes phone apps so cocky as to send me notifications telling me to use it. my grocery list app straight up went “you havent made a list in a while!” are you out of your fucking mind. you are a program. why are you speaking to me like youre my equal. i could replace you with a pen and the back of a receipt. idiot. i kill you now

    Any app that does shit like that immediately loses notification privileges. At the very least. If it’s something that I don’t need (thanks for reminding me, app), then I will just remove it.

      No application should have this privilege by default. I only gives it to apps that can’t work without it.

      I wish there was a more punitive option. Like, yeah, I disallowed notifications, but I also had a leaky gallon of liquid shit delivered to the CEO’s home.

        The most punitive thing you can do is give it a 1 star review.

        As it so happens it’s also the nicest thing you can do for everybody else since it makes it less likely people will download that app.
