Well, I would like to create a multi-tab in the F NAV which contains the messages and chat. Just something like on mobile phone app folders. So you’ll see what’s in there and can open it in a DMenu for example. It separately shows the unread badges when it opens otherwise you see a consolidated unread indicator. The messages should have priority as Arkshine mentioned so it would opens in a modal to view messages.

Great ideas! I think messages should be in F NAV as I mentioned above, but I think it will be customizable. 🤔

The original idea here was to redirect users to notifications with filter unread if there is unread notification and goes to all without filter if there isn’t and goes to review page if there is reviewable notification. But I forget to add it 😅 I think it’s more comfortable on mobile to redirect the page… But maybe I am wrong with it 🤔

Edit: I’ve added it. Now it redirect to `/u/username/notifications?filter=unread` if there is unread notification.

Hmm yeah it seems it doesn’t add the animation correctly if you close hamburger menu with click outside. Closing with swipe works fine, I think this is why I didn’t noticed it. 🤔

Thanks 🙂
