I limit mine to messages and calls because I don’t like the distraction of tons of notifications. Curious what others do

I have my phone permanently on Do Not Disturb, and anytime I have a notification I don't like, I block the app from sending notifications.

I basically have email, Signal, and missed phone calls left over (but voice messages are blocked).

I have my email silenced. The red dots are allowed but nothing else. Too much spam
