Maybe, but I think playing with meta-metrics is a dangerous game. I know plenty of people that just let notifications pile on. Some people have weird flows — e.g. see notification, don’t interact with it directly, then manually navigate to and enter the app that notified.

I really just think individual notifications (not apps) just need an explicit “this is spam” report button.

I do that sometimes. Not that it matters, because rarely any notification seems to deep-link into an app these days.
