Checklist
- Find top noisy servers
- Mute whole categories where possible
- Disable nonessential role pings
- Check mobile push settings
- Use favorites for important channels
Steps
- Identify which server or channel creates the most alerts.
- Mute categories before muting individual channels.
- Keep direct mentions visible if you need accountability.
- Check mobile notification settings separately.
- Revisit after a week and adjust.
Notification overload often comes from a few channels, not the whole app. A focused audit is faster than leaving every community.
The goal is not zero alerts. The goal is alerts that matter.
