This is just a concern I had with the client. Back during the good ol’ Reddit days, I get notified about a post/comment reply immediately when it happens. I have since left that website, and for some reason I don’t know why this isn’t a feature yet.
And yes I have tried Connect for Lemmy, I had major problems with that app.
I wondered that as well but assumed it was because this app is still in Alpha status. I’m surprised they haven’t added it in yet.
Also it’s weird that your notifications in-app don’t switch to “read” status unless you reply. Sometimes I have nothing to say to someone who replied to me and the notifications are piling up lol
There is a button to mark as read, aswell a mark all as read button.
There’s a button to mark a reply as read though
Fixed now in 0.0.41
In my case, I almost always reply to a comment unless I’m in the very rare situation of having nothing to say. I’ve been like this on Reddit, too.
I guess you win some and you lose some.
Gotta mark as read until the number disappears, then swipe down to refresh.
Same. I’ve moved to summit and kbin
