Has anyone else noticed a drop in negative emojis since they're no longer anonymous?

Especially the hit and runs. Or is that just my imagination?

BTW, Kudos to the Admins...

    I could be wrong but it seems all the political threads have reduced the traffic on the forum overall. Its become so monotonous. I personally have cut back my engagement. Same old song and dance......

I am now down to just Quotations in my Notifications, thank you.

Maybe that is because now there is only ONE negative emoji, unless you class the question mark and Heartbroken as negative, and FIVE positive ones, all meaning roughly the same..

Scrap them all as far as I am concerned no matter what the Poll results said.

A push notification means you'll receive the notification on your phone or laptop/desktop even when you are not actively using / reading AN.

Turning them off means you'll only see your notifications when you actually go to read AN.

Push notifications are very annoying, I use them only for important stuff like email.
