discontinued pink shark appJan 18, 2023

so i'm thinking it might be neat to have post notifications as a timeline option next to home, local and federated (along with pinned lists and hashtags… when i get to implement that) – thus removing the "posts" tab in notifications.

but then: "post notifications" is a weird name for a timeline, and "beitrags-benachrichtigungen" is just way too long. just "posts"/"beiträge"/… would be shorter, but even more confusing, right? but since there's an explanation anyway – maybe it's fine?

so i'd love to be able to just say "nah, this is a bad idea, post notifications belong in the notification" – but practically speaking, scrolling through posts (of people i've enabled notifications for) feels more like a "starred people" timeline than notifications to me. (the "all notifications" tab still has those posts too, though.)

any thoughts on this, and on naming the tab?

@megalodon hmmm so there would be a timeline that consists of notifications from the people you've enabled that were caused when they favorited or reblogged someone elses posts?
