I've learned recently that iOS does not separate notifications into channels. You either get them or you don't.
You can't turn off ads for apps and keep the notifications you care about.
The shittiest Huawei phone has this critical feature. And that's just one.

No, the battery thing.
If you can yoink the battery at a whim, you're likely to do so. Probably without powering the phone down. This has an amazingly high chance of leaving the filesystem, or any number of apps' state* inconsistent and corrupted.
So you can either block execution until writes have for sure hit storage, or seal the battery and be able to use the page cache.

Long press a notification, or go to an app's info/settings.
You can block them entirely, make them collapsed, or show/not show titles/content on the lock screen, or always be silent, or always make noise, or use a different sound, etc.
YouTube and Fedilab as examples.
God damn I love using a real phone.

@birdulon This one service turns out to be a better economic decision for me; For my particular set of inputs, the sub ends up being economically advantageous here.
The value of my time * the number of hours I would need to spend per month to for-sure block 100% of ads across every device that six people use is *more* than the monthly fee. I would be *foolish* to go a different path.
If we want to act high and mighty, I'm absolutely sure there's *something* you pay for that I can smugly scoff at.

@birdulon No, I just don't like elitism from *any* camp. @greentext @coolboymew @Relected
@birdulon *that* I couldn't do anymore. When I literally had cash to launder, that was doable, but when I'm broke, I'm not paying $70 to watch the same fucking news channels say the same shit and then show me the same ads for medications I don't want.
*that* math says fuck the police, steal everything. @greentext @coolboymew @Relected
