Here's a question for anyone else who uses #iceshrimp (and maybe #firefish or other #misskey equivalents, idk):

I only use the web client, mostly on mobile. And every time I post or boost something, I hear an annoying boop. If I happen to be listening to audio from another app at the time, it stops it cold to give me the vital news that I just posted something.

I do not want my Fediverse client to make any sounds whatsoever at any time. Yet I've tried all the notification- or sound-related settings I can find, and the boops keep coming. Is it possible to turn them off?

(As an aside, when designing any UI, always ask, "Is there a reason for this to make noise?" And unless it's an audio or video player or tool for the visually impaired, the answer is almost always "No." And even if the answer is "yes," unless it's an alarm warning you of mortal peril, it should always be easily disabled by the end user.)

@cholling yeah don't think we can disable it :neocat_melt_sob:

@tournesol @cholling Settings > Sound > Own post > Choose none and turn down the volume to 0?

@Varpie @cholling omg how did we miss that :derp_charmander:

@Varpie @tournesol Sadly, that doesn't actually work on my server.

@cholling @Varpie @tournesol Whats not working about it on your side? Seems like I can get to it and modify the slider / sound here and seems to be taking effect when I test it out with a post

@Ategon @Varpie @tournesol I can move the slider but still hear the sound. I can set the sound to "None" but it just resets to "Annoying boop" the next time I log in.

My server did just upgrade Iceshrimp last night so maybe it works now?

@Ategon @Varpie @tournesol The update fixed it!
