Ok here is what was decided on the team call today. This will be a user pref. Three options:

1. No context whatsoever, just the post we’re notifying you about.

2. Minimal context, **just the (abbreviated, if need be) post this was in reply to**, and even then _only_ if it was an intentional reply to a specific post. ℹ _this will be the default_

3. “Full” context, as we do it now, same exact code paths, up to 5 _unread_ previous replies in reverse chronological sequence.

I suppose we can add this to your plate @zogstrip, no rush, next week or later is fine..
