This is just a concern I had with the client. Back during the good ol’ Reddit days, I get notified about a post/comment reply immediately when it happens. I have since left that website, and for some reason I don’t know why this isn’t a feature yet.

And yes I have tried Connect for Lemmy, I had major problems with that app.

    It’s just hasn’t been added yet. For that feature it would have to continuously poll in some interval in the a background for each account. Since the websocket API is removed.

    I prefer it that way… I don’t need to be notified immediately, I can just catch up/reply whenever I open Jerboa next.

    I wondered that as well but assumed it was because this app is still in Alpha status. I’m surprised they haven’t added it in yet.

    Also it’s weird that your notifications in-app don’t switch to “read” status unless you reply. Sometimes I have nothing to say to someone who replied to me and the notifications are piling up lol
