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.

    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!
