Your assumptions are poor. People sometimes ask because they are looking for advice from others. “What’s your take on this”, etc.

Plus, them asking lets others know something is possible they hadnt even thought to search for.

Nothing wrong with asking questions on sites centered around user discussions.

Donwvote and don’t answer if you think they are asking in bad faith.

Ooof. Jumping in to say im currently on an s9 that is dying and was thinking of going to the 23. Didnt even consider the notification light til seeing your post and some comments here.

There is an app (not mine) called aodnotify that only turns on the always on display under certain circumstances. Customizable kinda like different light colors were. This might help? I use it on my s9 but have no clue if its updated or compatible with newer phones.

I have no idea if this is correct, but you get my point for knowing Act Raiser well enough to throw it out in a thread like this.
