Unfortunately, I still get their notifications. It's quite inconvenient. I go excited to see someone making a comment on a post, and it turns out to be the first sentence of "This is actually literally Hitler".

C'est la vie. Reddit making interaction mutually impossible was the best solution.

That's part of the reason why I turned off notifications for posts. I'd much rather come back to the post later and see the replies than get pinged everytime someone responds.

Ah, but I love having conversations, and conversations are much more likely to start if you reply promptly!

Same here, and then I remember where I am. Granted lemmy/kbin is much better than reddit in terms of userbase and the quality of conversation, but the most obnoxious of users do have more visibility.

I just feel like lemmy has been feeling more and more like the obnoxious side of reddit as of late.

Beefing up blocking was one of the few good things Reddit did in the last ten years
