Thanks for including a screenshot. I used to get those in my email at work, but didn't know they had a name.A push notification is not an instructor whispering in your ear that it's now really time to stop hesitating and jump into the water.
It's a little popup on your screen, looking like this:

I prefer to get most notifications via mail delivery. Real mail, the kind that comes with a stamp and is delivered to the mailbox near my front door. When someone replies directly to a post I made, that little bell sign is entirely adequate. Otherwise, I prefer not to be troubled with unrequested, unwanted, and annoying attention getters.A push notification is not an instructor whispering in your ear that it's now really time to stop hesitating and jump into the water.

Another thing: In over 50 years of scuba diving I've never had anyone encourage me to enter the water. I think these kind of 'hesitations' occur mostly with inadequately experienced advanced open water certificationeers who still are a bit afraid, usually because they have been inadequately trained by instructors using the currently standardized scandalously brief instruction programs.A push notification is not an instructor whispering in your ear that it's now really time to stop hesitating and jump into the water.

Methinks you doth protest too much.Another thing: In over 50 years of scuba diving I've never had anyone encourage me to enter the water.

The folks back home are laughing that you thought what I posted was a quote.'The lady doth protest too much, methinks', is the proper word order of Hamlet's observation. The folks back home must be beaming with pride at your literary accomplishments.
I guess it was silly of me not to realize that the word 'doth' is part of your everyday vocabulary. How wonderful it was that you came up with a sentence, all on your own, that so closely resembled something written by the bard of Avon.The folks back home are laughing that you thought what I posted was a quote.
