This allows us to e.g. use more subtle feedback for OSK button presses than for 📢 of incoming SMS.
Opened MRs to make that possible and
while at that I made the maximum strength for all events confiurable too. It's a bit hard to 👂 in the 📽️ but it's there. Hopefully this makes it into #phosh 0.46:

I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
