Which app did that? I only got notifications when someone replied to a comment/post I made.

It was a New Reddit/official app thing

I think that was in Reddit itself, not any app. You know, apps just display notifications, and reddit creates them.

And yeah, as another user noted, this happened at different "milestones" like 1, 5, 10, 20 etc.

Nah it definitely was not just a reddit itself thing.

Reddit would send notifications to your reddit inbox even on desktop. Don't remember getting any for 1-20 though. If hadn't viewed the old notification, you wouldn't get the notification for the milestone.

The "official app" experience is not everyone's experience tho. Of course several people say theirs didn't change, but they were accepting shit anyways.

I believe you could also turn off vote notifications, I did im pretty sure. And you could also turn of replies too.

Also do you mean notifications in the notifications section of the app or push notifications to your phone?

I know you can for sure turn off push notifications, they actually had decent customization for that.
