We've rolled out a new feature on mastodon.social. You now have access to notification settings and can decide who you want to get notifications from. Everyone else will be put into notification requests you can peruse separately. There's a fresh coat of paint as well!

Jon (bikingviking@mastodon.social)'s status on Monday, 18-Mar-2024 23:55:14 JST Jon @Gargron the sidebar takes up too much space. The posts are too small.

I'm on web mobile - was losing the separation of different types of notifications intentional? I just have All/Mentions now. -
Eugen Rochko (gargron@mastodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 19-Mar-2024 00:16:22 JST Eugen Rochko @cafechatnoir Yes. There are too many different notification types nowadays for that level of granularity to make sense, and All / Mentions covers the most important and common uses.

Eugen Rochko (gargron@mastodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 19-Mar-2024 00:29:49 JST Eugen Rochko @thisismissem In my experience that page is not very well known, and right above where notifications are should be more discoverable.

Emelia 👸🏻 (thisismissem@hachyderm.io)'s status on Tuesday, 19-Mar-2024 00:29:50 JST Emelia 👸🏻 @Gargron these settings are certainly not where I expected them to be (which was https://mastodon.social/settings/preferences/notifications )

Eugen Rochko (gargron@mastodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 19-Mar-2024 00:33:20 JST Eugen Rochko @thisismissem Sure, "e-mail preferences" would make sense.

Emelia 👸🏻 (thisismissem@hachyderm.io)'s status on Tuesday, 19-Mar-2024 00:33:21 JST Emelia 👸🏻 @Gargron yeah, it may make sense to add some copy to that page that says “you can find more notification settings by clicking the <cog icon> at the top of the notifications page”
Or perhaps renaming that page to “Email Notifications” or “Email Settings”, since that's what it is, iirc.

David Schmidt (individual8@mastodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 19-Mar-2024 01:30:25 JST David Schmidt @Gargron Additionally to light/dark, I'd prefer a "system default" setting that respects the setting of the OS. I change between light/dark during day and night time. Would be neat if Mastodon adapted automagically, like other pages do.

Fubaroque (fubaroque@mastodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 19-Mar-2024 01:38:58 JST Fubaroque @Gargron Can you guys keep the smaller screens in mind when developing the web user interface?
I already can’t enter an alt-text (OK button of the bottom of the screen and can’t scroll or zoom it back on) and now the mute-dialogue has gotten the same treatment… 😠
I would like to actually use the user interface. #please

The first bit sounds good, the second (the UI change) sounds ominous. I'll reserve judgement until I get to a PC though...In conversation permalink -

As long as the API doesn't change so mobile apps can still have granularity, that's fine.

Citizen.Coping (propcazhpm@mastodon.social)'s status on Thursday, 21-Mar-2024 07:24:32 JST Citizen.Coping Being able to mute or filter posts that exceed 500 characters would be great.
Search is not good because it returns too many dissertations.
