Neeeeew Achievement: Put it under glass!

"No, this isn't a reference to Sir Mix-A-Lot's 1994 underrated work of lyrical genius, Put 'em on the glass. You've completed a jigsaw puzzle! And then instead of simply shellacking it in glue, you carefully chose a frame, and hung it up for display! Now it's officially a work of art. Human Resources is just going to love you!"

Reward: You get a slightly used pair of noise-cancelling headphones to drown out the complaints of people who walk into your cubicle without asking! Screw them if they can't appreciate a man, his perfect feet, his cat, and her mongoliensis! What do they know?

Is there any way for Moderators to possibly opt out of this?

Context: I have multiple accounts. 99% of my reddit activity is done on a laptop or desktop, so I can access the old reddit UI via using the Chrome brower and the https://old.reddit.com/new URL.

(because old reddit = best reddit)

Lately, if I log out of this account, and log any of my other accounts, when I log back into this account, Reddit sends me an email from noreply@reddit.com:


Title: New login to your account

Body: Hi u/Halaku,

We noticed a new login to your account. To keep your information safe, we want to make sure it was actually you.

Was this you?

If you recently signed in from a new device, browser, or location, you can safely ignore this message. No further action is required.

Was this NOT you?

However, it doesn't send this link to any of the other accounts when I log into them.

Only this account, only when I log back into it.

I don't know if this is some sort of A/B thing, or a "We're going to nag moderators until they turn on 2FA" thing, or something that only targets moderators with a specific number of communities, or a specific community size, or what.

I'd rather not set up a Gmail filter to just shove anything from this email address or with this title (or both) out of my inbox. Is this something that's being aimed at moderators specifically? If so, is there any way to make it stop?
