For this picture of the notification tab, there seems to be a separate @ tab for mentions. Just wondering if this has now been included under the replies tab or if there’s a separate setting to toggle this somewhere.
Those are now part of the replies tab.
They were combined to reduce the number of overall tabs, and @mention and reply are generally of equal importance (more important than likes or edit notifications, for instance).
Thanks for the clarification!
No worries. I was a bit slow off the mark this morning and didn’t thank you for bringing up that we’d included a slightly older version in the blog images, but thank you. I’ve passed it back to the team and hopefully we’ll have an up-to-date one swopped in shortly.
Just a little follow-up to say that it’s been swopped out:
Thanks again.
FWIW, I liked it separate. I find mentions to usually be of more importance than replies (which after a while can kind of drift).
We’re always open to feedback if you want to create a topic on it. I think one of the factors was what would work best for a non-admin user who wouldn’t have a lot of ‘core’ topics that get quoted and replied to a lot, if that sways you at all?
Eh, of my concerns this is minor. But I think it might apply to any heavy user, not just admins[1]. I guess there’s always the UX question of whether you optimize for the majority causal users or the power-users, and there isn’t always a neat answer.

which — “admins as heavy users” is one of my bigger concerns! ↩︎
