with A calling

filterNotificationsOnDateRange()

directly from the view (Fragment)

with B I'm calling it inside

lifecycleScope.launchWhenCreate { }

in the Fragment

would this change if I where to call another suspend function inside

filterNotificationsOnDateRange()

? Let's say a call to get different data from the room db

Don't think it changes anything.

if you go for option A the scope will be canceled when the fragment lifecycle ends, aka on a config change. If you use the viewmodelscope the filter result would still be available

I dont want this dataset to be updated automatically while the screen is open, with use of Flow
