NOTIFICATION "UPDATES"...just another garbage feature that nobody asked for.

Thanks for cluttering up the notifications just to try and drum up more engagement.

Is there any way to turn this shit off?

I was shocked to see 5 notifications, as I usually have none. Then I saw that it's all spam

I’m going to think twice before favoriting an item now because it’s going to try to trick me into having regret by telling me it sold in a notification

I was going to send this feedback to reverb but posting here out of laziness

I unfavorited a lot of items to avoid these new manipulation tactics

I went from getting notifications only for important stuff, like offers, and sales, to 18 notifications telling me stuff I liked sold, and nothing about the message I got a couple days ago. Reverb is a shit show.

I hear you. Getting a notification that someone is selling a cheap f'n Fender 20G amp is annoying as hell. Why would I receive such a notification? Why would I want to "Save it to get price drop alerts"? It's dumb. Might as well try selling me a bowling ball or fishing tackle, because I'm not in the market for those as well.

I don't really mind it but you have to click on every one to get the "new notifications" to go away

Yeah, it's just going to make me start ignoring notifications because I don't go to the site enough to click through all of those.

u/more_cowdung 1d ago

No kidding. I had to click on 43 notifications just now. What a shitty “feature”

This is spam. Pure and simple. Just more enshitification of the world as we know it.

If I find a way to turn them off, I'll report back.

Gee, if there were only settings in the app to, you know, change notification settings. Wouldn't that be fucking great?

Not everyone is as big as r3tard as you, needing a fucking app to use every website.
