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

        I don’t. What kind of memes centre around Twitter notification sounds, anyway?

    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.

    Im not even straight and I don’t know the sound, why would anyone who has no reason to use the app know it?

            Dude. Fuck the old ladies! I mean, not sexually…but, fuck them if they want to judge you for being gay.

            You’re going to buy some dvds, or some clothes, or whatever you came to the thrift store for. They’re going to droll on living their meaningless lives. And you’ll still be getting more cock than they will.

            This coming from a straight guy who just wants everyone to be happy being themselves. Unless that true self is a hateful prick who judges others for existing. Fuck those people. You wanna marry a gothic nun vampire hunter? Go for it. I won’t understand it, but I don’t have to. It’s not my life you’re affecting. And same for these old ladies. They can either accept you, or fuck off.

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

      This comes up every once in a while. Apparently there are a surprising number of people on Lemmy who are still commited to using audible notifications.

        There are a surprising number of people who have notifications on for stuff that needs to mind its own business.

      Not notifications, but I have to leave my volume on in case there’s an emergency call from work or a friend

      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.

    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.

      This made me look it up as well, and I cannot express how disappointed I am that it isn’t a grinding sound.

    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.

      Same. I couldn’t tell you what the notification sounds of any apps sound like.

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

    I have no idea what it sounds like but I figured it’s because everyone keeps their phones muted. I know I do.

    I’m not straight and have no idea what it sounds like. (Not what you asked, but my incredibly straight parents have no clue what Grindr even is, if that helps. :)
