    Im not even straight and I don’t know the sound, why would anyone who has no reason to use the app know it?

            Dude. Fuck the old ladies! I mean, not sexually…but, fuck them if they want to judge you for being gay.

            You’re going to buy some dvds, or some clothes, or whatever you came to the thrift store for. They’re going to droll on living their meaningless lives. And you’ll still be getting more cock than they will.

            This coming from a straight guy who just wants everyone to be happy being themselves. Unless that true self is a hateful prick who judges others for existing. Fuck those people. You wanna marry a gothic nun vampire hunter? Go for it. I won’t understand it, but I don’t have to. It’s not my life you’re affecting. And same for these old ladies. They can either accept you, or fuck off.

    I’m not straight and have no idea what it sounds like. (Not what you asked, but my incredibly straight parents have no clue what Grindr even is, if that helps. :)

    I know I’ve heard it in memes before but I’ve forgotten what it sounds like. Though I’d probably recognize it if I heard it again, maybe?

      This comes up every once in a while. Appparently there are a surprising number of people on Lemmy who are still commited to using audible notifications.

        There are a surprising number of people who have notifications on for stuff that needs to mind its own business.

      Me. I work freelance. I can’t afford to miss an email.

      The trick is only to have important inbox notifications on and no notifications for any other apps. Then you don’t need to put your phone on silent.

    I recently learned that the annoying two-tones “whistle” notification is/was Twitter, so that sort of counts right?

    Put everything on silent and non-vibrate. Disable any sort of blinky or flashy light that seeks your attention. Abandon civilization brother. Be free.
