Sorry for a photo of a phone screen. I had trouble screen capturing the notification shade.

    So, the person who designed that absolutely did it on purpose, right? Because if not, that is the funniest coincidence I’ve seen in a long while.

      Speaking ass an app developer, the person who chose the text is probably not the person who did the development or testing. This is probably a default template where they just say “what’s the title, what’s the message”. It would be very unlikely that it was anything butt a coincidence.

        Thank you for acknowledging my attempt! I’ve made similar comments to other users at least five times and they all went ignored.

            That’s all I can conclude. I was actually surprised OP replied. But I knew they were human by how they interacted with users.

              I mean. There are quite a few legit bots around. Especially on the news subs. The fediverse isn’t quite as saturated yet with legit content submissions.

                  I hope not. Although I keep seeing some people posting the same shit I saw on Reddit. Might just be lazy commenting though.

          Thank you. I’m going to try again now.

          I’m using sync on Android and I don’t believe that I can change the setting there. I can change the setting for whether I filter bot accounts, and so that confused me for a bit about whether I was misinterpreting that setting.

          I did find the setting in a web browser on my home instance. And I thought I corrected it, and I thought I saved my change. Updates and screenshots to follow momentarily.

          Is this a setting that defaults to bot‽

            When I search for this setting in Sync it shows up.

            But when I click on it it goes to a page that does not offer the setting either at the top level or buried inside of anything else.

            When I go to look for this setting again in my home instance, I find that it is in fact now correctly set. It was not correctly set when I posted. So my fix stuck.

            I assume, as someone else suggested, that there’s some caching going on somewhere, either on the transmitting end or the receiving end.

            That’s fair: as far as Lemmy knows it was posted by a self-declared bot, even if that puppet later became a real boy.

    Somewhat related - anyone knows how to completely disable this message? I have turned off ASSistant, but this keeps popping up everytime I connect bluetooth headset. Thanks in advance

    There’s a streamer I sometimes watch on twitch who used to play a game and then spend some time watching analog horror that chat had recommended. He intentionally phrased his stream titles so they’d show up in twitch notifications as, “now: [game/activity] later: anal…”
