That was it, @Moin. Thanks! (No clue why that didn’t jump out at me from the list )
And what about thread update notifications? Does a ‘me too’ count as a reply for the purposes of getting reply notifications?
In a situation, where I’ve raised an incident based on a high ‘me too’ count, when I reply to the thread to ask users for additional details… who gets the notification?
The default for that is configured by admins with the Default_other_notification_level_when_replying site setting, which is “tracking” by default.
So if the user preference is default, the button results in the same topic tracking as a reply. So if you reply to the topic instead of a specific post by default users who replied and those who used the button receive the same kind of notification: the topic will appear in the users unread/new list.
But I don’t think you receive direct notifications for replies in a topic you are tracking, so I am not sure if that is what you mean. For those who replied you can use an @here mention which is like notifying everyone who posted. This is probably something userss who used the new button would not be notified about.
