In the settings I already disabled notifications for likes. It seems that there is no such feature for share badges and link badges. I’m quite active in my community and sometimes I get a bunch of “Nice Share” badges, which aren’t very relevant to me (any more).
What are the chance that such a feature is introduced (disable notifications for certain badges)?
Best, Stefan
PS.: If this feature exists and I simply didn’t find it, please move this topic to support.
I would also like to request that we can turn off notifications for links, the same as we can for likes - as would at least one other member of the WaniKani community.
We have a number of people that post them all the time - because they’re helpful - to new forum users, and it takes over our notifications. ((EDIT: Exactly like the screenshot in this post.))
I find that actual replies get lost amidst the sea of link notifications… Or when activity is lower, I get excited that someone has said something to me - but then it’s just my link in an introduction post again.
Thank you for considering this feature - the sooner it can be implemented, the better.
EDIT 2: Here is a screenshot of mine. They’re a month old, because surprisingly, they’ve stopped recently… Maybe the frequent poster is on vacation… But previously, this is behaviour that happens all the time.
The mention at the bottom is the thread that gets linked, and has been linked at least 1000 times since I made it. (If it were linked on average 9 times a day x 365 days a year… that would be 3,285 times.)
It’s more than one user (two or three that I’m 100% sure of), and I wouldn’t want to mute them, as they’re both fantastic people whom I regularly interact with in other threads.
Any other suggestions?
Would muting an entire section of the forum (introductions is a sub-category) stop these notifications? This might help cut out 80% (or more) of these notifications in my case. I don’t know about it in the case of the other user who was complaining.
