The valuelessness of Reddit upvotes made Reddit create notifications when your post / comment gets upvoted

I think that was in Reddit itself, not any app. You know, apps just display notifications, and reddit creates them.

And yeah, as another user noted, this happened at different “milestones” like 1, 5, 10, 20 etc.

Nah it definitely was not just a reddit itself thing.

Reddit would send notifications to your reddit inbox even on desktop. Don’t remember getting any for 1-20 though. If hadn’t viewed the old notification, you wouldn’t get the notification for the milestone.

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  • All posts must be showerthoughts
  • The entire showerthought must be in the title
  • Posts must be original/unique
  • Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
  • Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct
