Can I mute notifications for a while?
Yes. Alongside the per-category controls, you can mute everything temporarily — a quiet period when you don't want any outbound notifications (handy while you're traveling or on a break).
When the mute expires, your notifications resume exactly as before, using the category preferences you already set.
You can also mute a single show's notifications without touching anything else — useful once an event has wrapped up but you're still registered.
