I do, and have done for a while. I think it’s a question of perception from the walkers/doggers/horsie types etc. that bikes are ‘supposed’ to have bells, and someone using one is therefore a courteous and considerate trail companion.
A bloody MTBer yelling from 200yrds always will often be considered aggressive, even when that’s not the intention. (own the countryside, riding on the footpaths, didn’t slow down, small dog nearly run over, grumble mutter etc. to fade)
Edit – wow, Northwind posted that while I was typing, I’m really surpised, never ever had that reaction!
