also just pointing out, notifications don't have to be a specific event type, it is just a filter that polls for events and flips a toggle when a match comes up
"communities" is not a singular reason for notifications nor is anything... DMs are a commonly needed one, and focus topics and focus threads are others, so there's quite a list of things that need to be watched for
I thought if all of this and a chat-like UX accounts for all of it. So far.
Did you account for someone wanting to see all notifications from multiple npubs in one view? Because I desperately want that. 😂
No, but I wonder if that's even necessary if:
1. You have less need of spinning up different npubs because you can partition your content consumption and publication across community. As in: I don't need to spin up a different npub for my posts about coding, design or music. I just post I'm different communities.
2. If you have seamless profile switching built-in. If I spin up a different npub, it's going to be for a company, organisation, music band, ... and I'd like to be able to not have all those notifications in my face over the weekend by default.
But, If you do really want everything at one glance, I'm not designing for that no. I'm designing for easy/fast access and management. That means having notifications and necessary sctions in the same app. That in turn means splitting things by noub by default.
Well, that's okay. Just means we'll need another app.
I've mentioned before that I'd like a notification app with settings for every channel. Could specify down to user, like with Teams. Then your group SysAdmin npub that autoposts from your build service always comes through and goes straight to the top with a ❗and the normal work account is suppressed outside of business hours.
