Email notifications
Most of us disable email notifications because we spend most of our time in Teams and not in email.
If you spend more time reading emails, you may want to keep email notifications on to stay informed about your teams' activities.
Banner notifications
Most of us only use banner notifications for things we want to know about immediately, such as when someone replies to us, @mentions us, or when meetings begin.
With a large team, receiving banner notifications for other things can be overwhelming. Take likes, for example. If we received banner notifications for every "got it" message someone sent us, we would be flooded with banners all day long. But if your team uses likes differently, such as confirmations, you may want to receive banner notifications when someone likes your messages.
Your activity feed
Some of us limit our feeds to items that require action, such as replies and @mentions, in order to use it as a to-do list. This may also appeal to you if you're a list-maker.
Others use this space to investigate what our teams are doing, responding to more pressing matters in the moment and then glancing at suggested and trending activities when we have the time.
