nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z I am not receiving any notifications for events from users I am not following, even though I have turned off both of my filters. This has been happening for a very long time. Is this intentional?

Is anyone else facing this issue on #Amethyst

Amethyst only shows notifications when you are an author of one of the e tags (if you are the root, or the last reply, for instance, you always get it) or if you are directly cited in the text. This was a response to the hell threads that keep happening. In those cases, cited amethyst users receive the first citation but none of the replies to the post you were cited.

Of course, we also easily allow the author of a reply to remove your user from the post. In those cases, you should not get notified anywhere.

Also, check if you haven't chosen the All Follow list in the notification feed. That will filter your notifications only to your follow list.

I'm sorry; it's my mistake. I apologize for wasting your time. How could I have missed this? 🤦‍♂️

I have missed it myself. I am not sure how to make it more clear 🤔

I am just happy it's not a bug.

I think by default, it should be set to Global and remain at the top of the list. I'll only choose 'all follow' in extreme cases.

Also, have you ever considered making hellthread protection notes specific, as in long thread conversations, important signals around you can be missed, I use multiple clients in long thread conversation, there is a huge differences in notifications.

or making it entirely optional could be helpful since it's often not required.

By the way I am just saying, Take your time; I understand these things are complicated.

Today, I had multiple conversations where users were replying to my posts, but I wasn't receiving any notifications. Interestingly, this only occurred when I was not following them. However, as soon as I followed them, I started receiving notifications again.

Note: they were replying to my response directly.

And this is marked as Global?

Yeah, I just checked it, sorry again 🫣

What’s a hell thread…? Lol. sounds fun

Probably. sometimes I use a web client and see stuff I missed. Probably relay related

Do you mean security filters?

I had the same for a while but didn't notice my notifications were set to following only 😅
