Ich liebe es, wie Discourse eine Feinabstimmung der Benachrichtigungseinstellungen für bestimmte Themen, Tags, Kategorien und Benutzer ermöglicht, ohne dass man /preferences/interface aufrufen muss. Ich nutze diese Funktion ständig; ich wünschte nur, alle Benutzer wüssten, dass sie das Gleiche tun können! Ich muss Benutzer immer wieder darauf hinweisen, dass sie den „kleinen Kreis-Button
I wouldn’t want to overwhelm very new users, but maybe once someone has viewed a dozen topics without interacting with the tracking status a little tooltip could appear…
The icons alone don’t lend much to discoverability… this is a feature most users don’t really need to interact with… but if you’re looking for a way to mute a topic you might not ever think the circle is relevant. That’s where the extra details in the topic footer may come in… but new users viewing long posts might not ever find it.
I wonder if being more literal with the concept of notifications would help? A bell icon would be a stronger “This has something to do with notifications” signal.
Hmm. Maybe we should go with the bell here? The circle is very abstract.
Cool, If a new user joined a discourse then the circle isn’t very self-explanatory. I agree that a bell will look better.
Seems like a good idea to me.
I wonder if we should stick with the bell theme for Watching too? The eye is more literal for Watching, but using the bell to consistently signify notification level is nice. There are a couple good bell options in FontAwesome but they’re unfortunately under the commercial license… but the bell and exclamation point are both in the free set, so I could remake that icon by combining those?

As a non-decisionmaker here
my personal preference would be for consistency with the bell across the board (in particular because the bell has a strong association with the concept of notifications). The exclamation point one you’ve made is nice! I also love the tooltip idea.
Yeah I think let’s go with the bell @awesomerobot I think it’s a positive change and a clearer glyph. Thanks for bringing this up @Elena_Lappen!
Quite agree there. Good luck - but you don’t need it because your good at this 
Neue Symbole werden schrittweise eingeführt. Sie werden diese bald auf Meta sehen, und sie sind verfügbar, sobald Sie Ihre Discourse-Instanz heute noch aktualisieren.
Vielen Dank nochmals für den Vorschlag @Elena_Lappen. Ich denke, das kann die Auffindbarkeit definitiv verbessern.
