I've been getting Mastodon notification beeps every 5-10 seconds for a solid 8 hours, because of my last post (https://fosstodon.org/@north/111057335768073441).
The level of traction / interaction it's gotten has been absolutely wild. I didn't expect it to reach even 1% of what it's become (I'd have felt extremely accomplished if even 20 people had favorited it -- at the moment, we're well over 1,000 favorites and 1,000 boosts).
I'll go through notifications after some calm and follow interesting people, I promise!
