"Limit timeline notifications" in wellness settings is confusing #2595

Open codl opened 2 years ago

It's really unclear what the option does. I had to look at the code to understand that it checks/unchecks faves, boosts and new follows in the notification filter.

I think this option should at least be renamed and/or have extra explanatory text. I also propose replacing it with an option to open the notifications filter dropdown, because it seems a little bit janky to overwrite filter settings like this, and it's very easy for it to get out of sync with the actual filter settings.

I should add that having a single-tap "my notifications are overwhelming right now" panic button is valuable, instead of having to mess with a bunch of checkboxes. But I don't think this particular implementation works well.
