I’ve gone back and noticed that sometimes a handful of people had responded to a previous comment and I never realized it.
As it stands, it seems you only get notifications if people actually manually mention your username. Is there any method to get post/thread reply notifications?
I would guess that one case is “I made a new thread and am OP and want to be notified of all messages to that thread” and the other is “I want to be notified of comments that are children to my own comments”.
There’s also:
Notify me of replies in my posts
And
Notify me of replies to my posts comments
So I think for an op one of those would be the correct one. I checked both “threads” and “threads comments” and got a notification, I just have to figure out which one means all replies and which one is direct replies because both “comments in my thread” and “replies to my threads comments” sound like they encompass both direct replies and sub replies (ie comments in my thread seems to imply any comment in the thread no matter how nested or to who they are to, at the same time “replies to threads comments” also sounds like it encompasses all replies since any comment under a thread no matter how nested or to who is technically a reply to a comment in the thread)…
Nah, that’s unrelated. This is just kbin and Reddit terminology clashing.
On kbin, you have posts, which are more-or-less the microblogging feature, a la Twitter.
Threads on kbin are analogous to posts on Reddit.
Threads can be either articles (a text post on Redditl or links (an URL post on Reddit).
Threads go in magazines, analogous to a subreddit on Reddit.
I’ve been essentially using kbin like Reddit, so ignoring the microblogs and posts.
