Unlisted topic is visible in notification popup if a category is watched?

But what is the sense of having a similar function if the topic is equally visible for users that watch a category?

I mean, I know that we can unlist a topic already published for a zillion of reasons but I also believe that this particular function should be implemented in some way when we create new topics.

I’m a bit confused here. If I recall correctly, the toggle I shared above was added to address your exact complaint. It allows you to create a topic that is unlisted when it is created, thus preventing notifications. It’s not a workaround…

Edit: Here’s the topic:

Unlisted topics: Making them more useful

Ability to toggle a topic unlisted has been added to the gear icon and is only available when creating a new topic. [image]
