grindr has a custom notification noise? isn't that indiscreet for an app like that?

Yeah I don't know any apps that have custom notifications out of the box these days, apart from Messenger. It's too convenient just to use the operating system's API and default to the user's default sound.

I don't know if there's some way to override/customise the notification sounds on Android on per-app basis. At one point in history I wanted Twitter to go [random bird noises] and Reddit to go "Le." but since I don't use either of them anymore I really didn't investigate this further.

In WhatsApp you can set custom notification sounds, I believe it even supports notification sounds on a per-contact basis. So safe to say you can do it as an app developer.
I used to use custom sounds I downloaded for a few people and it was useful, but it's clunky and time-consuming to set up for even a few contacts. I had to get the sounds on a PC because all the sound apps on the store feel like malware and are riddled with ads.

I think there is an option but it might be dependent on which company makes your phone.

It's actually really easy for a developer and for a user. Apps can provide a notification sound for themselves, but the Android API automatically creates a user interface inside of the notifications settings that let a user set a sound of their choice on a per-notification-channel (for example, Discord has separate channels for "Incoming calls", "Direct messages", "Friend requests", and a heap more) basis.

Signal does, that dee-deep sound it makes.

When I installed it used the default. I'm on GrapheneOS, how about you?

On my Samsung Android phone it's configurable but I think when I installed the app aeons ago it used their distinctive ding. On desktop Linux incoming messages throw standard push notifications.

I'm wondering whether it automatically copied using the default notification from my old phone then. I'm pretty sure I didn't change the Signal Notification sounds on my current phone.

on my phone (GrapheneOS / Android 14) u can accomplish this with:
Go to 'App Info' for the app (this can be done by long-pressing the app's home screen icon > App Info)
Select 'Notifications'
Select the specific notification kind (eg. 'New Message' or whatever)
Select 'Sound', which opens a radio-input of thw default system sounds, and an option to add a custom sound from a file
i would imagine most android builds, which are not very customized (such as samsung/oppo), would handle this similarly

As a non-native english speaker, i've always google the correct spelling defined by dictionary to respect the language. Wrong spelling is either quickly corrected or learned so i can be better next time i use that word.
Over the course of me using the internet, i've encountered two kind of native english speaker, one that's so anal about the correct use of the language, the other that will alter and redefine their own language to suit whatever they think it mean. So by saying "alternative spelling", to me it just basically mean "i'm not sure if the spelling is correct and i don't bother to fact check it". I was taught two set of english, one is american and one is british and my country have different english slang, but if a non-native speaker can fact check before posting, i'm sure a native speaker can too.
I stand by what i said, language change when people refuse to fact check and then justify it. That's how dialect and slang came to be. I have no say in it if that's what people want.
I feel like it's fine to make up new words or spellings once one has a solid grasp of the language. As long as the new stuff kinda respects the way the language works in general it's fine by me.

I wouldn't want to use one of those music listening type "sexy speakers" like what Dankpods has. Powa ahn. Blewtewth moad. Because it would sound too big and sharp, needs to be out of a tinny little 5mm driver.
