Have to use Windows for work (I’ve asked), the ads have been getting worse and worse on my work laptop. Today got a game ad notification… That’s clearly too far, right? Like I have to clear notifications, so I have to see it

    Ads are unforgivable. I’d recommend setting notifications to off.

      This is the way. Do it on your phones, tablets, computers, etc., then set reminder on your to do list to check important apps once a week. My personal email can be checked one day a week and my work email when I come in, lunch, and before I leave. I don’t need a popup on my phone, watch, Alexa, car, and toaster every time amazon wants me to share my experience with a product. Notifications murder my ability to focus.
