I’m not sure what happened, but for the last few days I’d had no notifications for new replies (which were coming in thick and fast), and it was absolute bliss.
Unfortunately I had a power cut and my PC rebooted, and now the notifications are back (including those that weren’t showing before), so I assume it was an error on my end but still - is it possible to make this a real option?
In an ideal world it would be like on reddit where you could switch off notifications per post and even per thread, but I’ll take an all or nothing option at this point.
the bell icon
Yea I don’t think you can turn these off.
There is a “mark all as read” button in there which can get rid of those, but it applies to everything, including DMs and whatnot.
I guess you could also just zap that element with ublock origin or something and you’d stop seeing those altogether.
This way you can technically still go there if you need to look but zap just the number.
Oh, that really sucks. Is it something the devs might be implementing at some point, or does no one else generally mind?
If I zap with ublock, I assume the icon will be gone? In that case how do I check notifications if I do want to?
Also, would there be any way to diferenciate notifications from replies vs DMs? Because I’d still like to be able to see one (DMs), but could go my entire life without getting another of the other.
You could zap just the number if you wanted.
This way you still have the bell icon to go to https://sh.itjust.works/inbox, but no number next to it.
When visiting the inbox, DMs, replies and mentions have their own filter that your can use to browse more easily.
Ok, that makes sense, I’ll give it a try, thanks!
It’d still be really cool if a “switch off notifications” option was implemented at some point!
