I am currently using the Harley Quinn theme as a ringtone, and the first three musical notes signifying a MK2 fatality as a text tone. No thanks to iOS 17, which has made it much more complex than it used to be.

alarm - Dust Me Selecta by Gerling

My parents both have text and phone alerts backwards, where they have a long text notification and a short call notification. My dad has the entire Imperial March from Star Wars as his text, and his call notification is a little chirp, while my mom has some Vivaldi as her text. I suggested they swap them but they did not want to. I keep mine silent or with whatever the default sound is if I am expecting something important, which leads to 10 people feeling their pocket at work when it goes off.

Having a custom ring tone is definitely only an old people thing.

I have normal-rear end unmuted ringtones, a fact I regretted yesterday when some girl thought it’d be really funny to spend literally all day prank calling/texting/facetiming the same random number while I furiously tried to figure out how to block her on every single service

No custom sounds here but I should really just go full-time soundless, 90% of the calls that I get are junk anyway. The junk texts have really gone down though, dunno if that's Android getting better at catching them or the spammers building up energy for election season.

Vibration makes a sound. Plus, I have an Apple Watch so it vibrates on my arm when I get a notification.

Oh man, I set up a ton of them when I first discovered Audacity like 8 years ago and still use a few. Like, when my parents' landline calls me it triggers the hook from Dream Theater's "Home"

On the extremely rare occasions that my phone is not on Silent or Vibrate (i.e. I'm waiting for a very important call or text), the ringtone is Battle Against a True Hero from Undertale faded in over the first 5 seconds, and the notification sound is Navi yelling HEY

Also yeah most of the time it's on silent and I get vibrate notifications on my smartwatch

I've been all vibe for several years now, but I think my first custom ringtone was an excerpt from Born Slippy (Underworld), later I switched it to an excerpt of Call On Me (Eric Prydz). I use the Land Of Chocolate music from The Simpsons as my alarm, and set that as my ringtone on my brother's phone.

My sister was using the door chime from ST:TNG as her text notification, but switched it to something else recently.

I tried playing Tina's Wonderland (thats the one where she narrates everything as a DM right) and played as the sniper/assassin character and it felt awful. It was a free game on PS5 so I was thinking about rerolling if I could get some confidence it would be better on another character.
