It's the total Barrage of notifications that's extremely hard to deal with @Former-Member

"Your friend said this", "Your friend posted something".

I did not know any of these people, they were not my "friends" - I had no idea who they were!

I'm someone who is "older", I never grew up with these constant spam emails & unwanted notifications (from social media etc) - that I now get.

I have not really adjusted to getting 20 + (mostly spam) emails & notifications (electronically) every day.

I even get lots of sms "Reminder" messages for appointments - when I already know that I have that appointment, because I booked that appointment myself.
