these fucking achievement notifications that nobody fucking asked for.

They're literally participation trophies

[u/Affectionate-Key-265 → u/SatiesUmbrellaCloset]

To be fair every trophy is a participation trophy. Even winning the Super Bowl is just getting a participation trophy. You just happened to be the best at participating.

Superb, even

I am apparently a top 1% commenter in dndmemes

I don't even remember any of my comments there

[u/Dry-Bet-3523]

Tell me about it.

[u/delo357]

Yea they're annoying

[u/RoyalZeal]

Which dumbass thought Reddit needed fucking achievements in the first place? (I hate these as well)

[u/omoriobsessedmf → u/RoyalZeal]

exactly my point, reddit isn't a game it's a social media site

[u/_LiarLiarpantsonfir3]

Nah lowkey I get it, it is quite annoying and useless, I don’t need a notification achievement for every fucking time I comment in a new sub

[u/Jumping-Gazelle]

Gamification in general is infuriating.
I had this at the gym: monitors tracking your progress is one thing. But when they dictate the exact speed it basically forces me (with so-called penalties on progress) to concentrate on that screen and not on my exercise or breathing. A total distraction, best to cover it up.

[u/QuimbyMcDude]

Howzabout going to settings then notifications then achievement updates turned off? Or go to old reddit dot com? Don't blow a gasket here.

[u/omoriobsessedmf → u/QuimbyMcDude]

i didnt know you could do that tbh

[u/noideawhatnamethis12]

Snuuy?

[u/omoriobsessedmf → u/noideawhatnamethis12]

i have been caught

[u/Away_Industry_6892]

Neeeeewww achievement!

[u/Final_Lingonberry586]

So disable them? It’s not hard.

[u/lolbsters]

~Gameification~ is the hot thing to do to your website nowadays. Theyre too cowardly/stupid to do anything actually fun so we get this crap.

[u/Barix9]

Can't decide if you're trolling or need therapy lol

[u/Euphoric-Slide-1568 → u/Barix9]

With omori fans it's probably both 

[u/omoriobsessedmf → u/Euphoric-Slide-1568]

well i know i need therapy but i'm not trolling, these notifs have been consistently annoying me since they got added

[u/Euphoric-Slide-1568 → u/omoriobsessedmf]

Same lol, they ARE pretty annoying. 

[u/omoriobsessedmf → u/Barix9]

im just sick of these notifications tricking me into thinking someone replied or something, there are so many better ways to display an achievement besides a notification that's displayed identically to every other notification

[u/NikNakskes → u/omoriobsessedmf]

You can switch the achievement notifications off. Saves you one mild annoyance with a single click. I also don't understand the purpose of these achievements. I understand what they try to evoke: engagement and gamification etc. But I'm not sure they make much sense on reddit in the way they are implemented.

[u/ApprehensiveDirt8753 → u/omoriobsessedmf]

Reddit isn't that serious bro.

[u/omoriobsessedmf → u/ApprehensiveDirt8753]

yea but i'm still allowed to get annoyed over these things :/

[u/Ok-Replacement-2738 → u/Barix9]

I feel their pain, it's genuine.

[u/Initial-Public-9289]

sO iNfUrIaTiNg

[u/omoriobsessedmf → u/Initial-Public-9289]

it is infuriating tho, i rarely get notifs so seeing one makes me interested and it pisses me off when it's just some achievement i don't care about :/

[u/adv0catus → u/Initial-Public-9289]

To be fair, this is the mildly sub. If anyone is exaggerating and blowing something out of proportion, it seems to be you.

[u/adv0catus → u/[deleted]]

...What are you talking about?

[u/omoriobsessedmf → u/adv0catus]

just a troll, ignore them

[u/Initial-Public-9289 → u/omoriobsessedmf]

Nah, you're just sad.

[u/Glass-Performer8389]

I like them twy

[u/ChubbyChicken645]

Grrr this is so infuriating!!!
