I just wanted an easier way to filter what is notified. I don't care if X or Y promoted profile posted, but I want to know if a friend did.

That unfortunately is going to be app dependent as far as I know. Your phone can set if a given app will alert you, but for example facebook would have to filter which friend's notifications get sent.

An app that let you manage notifications by user across multiple platforms would be amazing.

"I don't want to hear from Jay today" would be an awesome checkbox.

Yeah, I believe the newer android versions allow for that but requires app developers to implement notification sorting. Unfortunately it really isn't in their interest to do so.
