Disruptive notifications - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

Went from a Note 8 to the Note 9, anyone else notice that some notifications are super disruptive and find the setting to resolve? Maybe I'm just missing something, but seems like notifications like facebook for example are awful.
Doesn't seem to matter if it's youtube, VLC, Poweramp, Amazon Prime, Hulu, etc. If I get a facebook notification, as it's the worst, it will pause my currently playing movie/music/video for a good 2-3 seconds and then resume playing. I didn't have this on the Note 8 and it's driving me nuts lol.
I figure it has to be a os setting issue (as all notifications do this) but I can't find a way to change it other than disabling all notifications all together.

I'm having the same issues. Was hoping this thread wasn't empty.

I was having the same problem. If you go into Settings > Notifications, you can manage notifications for each app. I don't remember for sure, but I think just about all of my apps' notifications were ON by default! I shut them all of, then re-enabled just the ones on wanted! Sometimes you individual apps will also have different settings for notifications, too. But at least going into settings allows you to just shut them all down for an app. Thank goodness! No more Facebook notifications! Just be careful what you shut off. I shut off messages by mistake. I wondered why I wasn't getting notified when I got a text.

Facebook notifications, don't want 'em

How can I tell which application is actually creating notifications from facebook?
In the official facebook app's settings, I've turned off notifications, but I still get them. I also have bloo, and a few other facebook apps installed, but as far as I can tell, none of them are running when I get the notifications.
As they come in fairly often, it can get annoying with the constant buzzing and/or bleeping.
(On a related note: going to the item in the menubar dropdown takes me to the official app, to the notifications page... Which I then close. And then, without any actual new notifications coming in, it alerts me again shortly thereafter. Annoying. Halp!)

Notification Issues (MLB At Bat & CNN)

Hi. Long time iPhone user but new to Android as of two weeks ago. Bought the HTC One (AT&T) and am loving it so far.
However, I have been having issues concerning notifications through a couple apps. Specifically the MLB At Bat app and the CNN app. Let me start by saying that I have received notifications without issue when it comes to email, texts, and Facebook.
Now, with At Bat, I have notifications set up in the settings for the app (specifically for my favorite baseball team), and I technically do get notifications. What I mean by that is, if I happen to turn on my phone, I will see that a notification previously came in. However, I do not receive any audio or vibration feedback to accompany the notification. So, the phone doesn't actually alert me. The same case is true with the CNN app. In the settings for the app, I have set up to receive notifications for breaking news. Again, I technically get the notifications sent to my phone, so they will be there when I happen to check the phone for whatever reason. But when the notification is sent, I am not alerted in any way (no tone or vibration).
As I said before, I get notifications (accompanied with audio tone and vibration) without issue when it comes to emails, texts, and Facebook. I have scowered the system settings and the settings on the individual apps but everything appears to be in order. Thanks in advance for any help or direction you fine folks can provide.
edit: Also, I have uninstalled and reinstalled both apps, but nothing has changed.

Ongoing/Multiple notifications for certain apps

So I have had all three of the Galaxy Note phones, but I am having this weird problems with some apps and their notifications only on my Note 3. For example, whenever I use Pandora I have 2 notifications constantly running in my status bar. One of them tells me the song that is currently playing and the second one is telling me that Pandora is running. If I go into the app manager and disable the ongoing notification, it takes away both and I want to keep the song notification running.
I have this problem for other apps also, like ReLaunch. I went into the app settings and disabled the ongoing notification, but it is still there. So I went into the app manager again like I did with Pandora to take it away. Now whenever I restart my phone the notification comes back until I uncheck and then recheck the box to disable the notification. This also happens with other apps like some sms apps and Buzz Launcher.
Does anyone else have these problems and/or ways to fix them? I am running stock and not rooted at the moment.
Thanks.

Notifications on my Note9 are freaking the hell out

Sporadically since I got the Note9, notifications have been acting up. Today it kicked into overdrive so I'm hoping someone knows what's going on.
For Twitter, I get notifications from specific users that stack in one column in my notifications. I've never had an issue with these, but today, after I tap them and view the tweet, a few seconds later they reappear in the bar like I never accessed them.
Instagram and Facebook keep showing the same notifications, hours after I view them. For instance, a friend posted a picture at 1pm today and I viewed it and the notification disappeared. Then, just now at 4pm, it popped up and notified me about the same picture again, along with 4 others I had viewed/cleared throughout the day. Instagram acts almost identically.
Android Messages will repeat notifications when I open the actual app. So if I receive a text, next time I open the app, that text will pop up as a notification complete with the sound and visuals.
I thought it could be issues with the individual apps, but with the frequency increasing and it happening with multiple apps from different developers I'm thinking it may be the phone or OneUI. Does anyone have any ideas about what could be causing this?

Missing notifications

I am running EX Kernel, Magisk, Edexposed, and Blackenedmod. I used to have all notifications come just fine to my phone and my smartwatch. Recently I stopped receiving certain notifications.
For example Snapchat no longer sends me a notification if someone is typing or if a message has been sent to me. I notice I have to open Snapchat before it pulls a chat update request from their server. Also, I have games that notify me about stuff every few hours/daily reset, but I no longer get those notifications either for those games.
Could I have done something to my phone where some apps give me notifications but others don't? I checked settings and no notifications are disabled. Wear OS is also set to disable notifications on my phone while I'm wearing the watch but I had that setting on before and got notifications just fine. Any ideas for me?
Edit: fixed Snapchat by reinstalling it. But reinstalling my game won't give me the passive notifications.
