Auto-archiving notifications

I’d love my notification count to auto-reset when I load the notifications page. Or even better, to remove notification counts altogether as an option! (I also do this on my phone for every app.) Otherwise there’s a kind of labor involved in constantly marking my notifications as read, which I’m not excited to do.

Ooh, marginalia!

Good feedback! I’ve mostly spent time building for the desktop audience, so you might notice a few look funny or bugs, but I am hoping to pivot and focus on mobile in the near future. I agree, it is a bit tedious having to click ‘read notifications’ after you’ve already clicked to read the notifications.

@benwerd, check your settings, and there is a new page for Notifications. I didn’t change the behavior by default, but you should be able to get it set up however you’d like. If it doesn’t work as expected, or if I missed what you were asking for, please let me know.

That works really well! Thank you for the fast update!

Stanton @ Inkwell

You bet, thanks for suggesting it!
