As me and many others, you might have encountered the problem, that tapping on a comment in your inbox doesn’t get you to the comment and it’s context. However, you can actually directly jump from the comments inbox to the correct comment + context in the post.

Check the image. First long press on the upvotes/time on the top right, to have the lower bar expanded. Then press on the chain link button below to directly open the post!

It was hard to find and know unless you already know it. This definitely needs UX improvement. Hence, this post here.

    Unfortunately, it seems the settings do little to impact on mobile, where I spent 99% of my kbin/Lemmy (previously reddit) time.

    My feed won’t show my sub and always defaults to All and I do not get notifications - despite settings being selected and saved.

    Hopefully soon we see some QOL fixes as we progress - or better yet some sweet, sweet apps.

      Oh I browse on mobile on the browser too. I think you can click the button with the 3 lines and click Subscribed instead of All to get your subs.

      This is also janky atm, but if you want to see your list of the magazines you subscribed to, there actually is a way xD You click Profile, then there’s a bunch of metrics (number of boosts you did, threads you made, etc. ), and you scroll to the right until you see “Subscribed”. When you click that, it shows your magazines so you can go to them. I’m sure they’ll make this a lot easier to get to in the future

      What notifications do you have?
      I have this
      X Notify me of comments in my threads

      X Notify me of replies to my threads comments

      X Notify me of replies in my posts

      X Notify me of replies to my posts comments

      Notify me of new threads in a subscribed magazine <- I actually deselected this because I got too many notifications for me to look through

      Notify me of new posts in a subscribed magazine

        I have:

        [X] Notify me of comments in my threads
        [X] Notify me of replies to my threads comments
        [X] Notify me of replies in my posts
        [X] Notify me of replies to my posts comments
        Notify me of new threads in a subscribed magazine
        Notify me of new posts in a subscribed magazine

        Have never received a notification.

        And unfortunately even when I look at Sub only, it shows magazines I’m not subbed to.

        It’s submitted by others as a known bug as well.

          That’s a weird bug. If you set this one - Notify me of new threads in a subscribed magazine - even that one doesn’t show notifications? But I guess it’s weird it’s not notifying you of my replies to you, it should at least do that. If I didn’t get notifications of your responses, there’s no way I’d be able to know about it I think :/ Sorry you’re experiencing this.

            Thanks a lot for taking the time to look into it with me. You’re very kind!

            Honestly, I have been trying to cut back from screen time and be more present for my family. Uninstalling Reddit has been a amazing. But, discovering Lemmy has been a bit of a set back, lol. Not receiving notifications is probably a good thing for me at this point.

            Have a great day!
