Here's something I've noticed

On average, I'm getting between 60 and 80 notifications per day from mastodon which includes favs, boosts, replies, and mentions

That's with something in the region of 90 followers

Compared to when I was on birdsite I had about the same number of followers, and 60 to 80 notifications might happen in a week, more likely two weeks

No idea if that actually means anything, but it's something I've noticed
