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
It increases engagement and that's what the developer wants, especially if there are ads or purchases in the app. So you might hate it but it works.
The only engagement it gets after an unwanted notification is the uninstall button.
Damn engagers, ruining it for the rest of us.
Is it easy to prove it works?
In the end, the proof is the developer's income. They seem to think it's worth it on average. Of course the average public contains a bunch of people who want to help out that nice Nigerian prince.
