@alextecplayz That's more confusing.

@Deus How so? It groups the users that liked a post into one notification, instead of 100.

@alextecplayz How are you going to figure out 'who' reacted to your post? Another click to expand and see? I don't mind the endless scrolling TBH. Granted it could be different for those who get 1000+ reactions. But then, such users hardly don't need (or bother) to check it anyways.
