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.

    Hey OP, did you know your account is set to appear as a bot and many might be filtering it.

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

          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…”
