A Common Sense Media report finds about half of 11- to 17-year-olds get at least 237 notifications a day. Some get nearly 5,000 in 24 hours. What does that do to their brains?

oh yeah, I've been fighting hard to keep only important shit in my notifications for ~years~ decades

edit: shit does Lemmy not use markdown?

I think Lemmy accepts markdown formatting, the syntax might just be different

For example, ~~this is a strikethrough~~
