Description
Problem
As the site is now, it is cumbersome to customize your notification preferences in a meaningful way. When you go into your notification settings, you are met with a card like this:

Anyone can see why it might be frustrating to update all of these preferences to match their needs. It would take an hour to get through all of these settings navigating to and from their individual cards.
Proposal
I think it could be beneficial to add some toggles to each of the outer sections here that would automatically turn off or on all of the notifications for the relevant page.
Execution
This would involve storing a map of the sections, some way to identify them on the browser, and each of their API endpoints to call on toggle.
Other Options
If this is not possible or beyond a reasonable scope for implementation and maintenance, it could be worthwhile to try to fix the problem in a few other ways:
- Add a button to
Turn All Notifications Off/On, which would allow a user to turn everything off. Then they could go back through and turn specific notifications back on if they so desire. - Modify the existing toggle to turn all notifications off via the API, so that instead of keeping per-section settings, all sections have their settings turned to off when the toggle is flipped.
- Add a
Reset Notification Settingsbutton to the UI, which would turn everything off via the API.
