Muted threads increase the notification counter in browser #2246

Open BsNoSi opened 9 months ago

BsNoSi commented 9 months ago

I have muted a thread in which a participant has changed his ID with data from me (he uses my name and data from my website and makes questionable/disparaging comments). This is obviously intended to provoke me.

The identity theft has already been reported, but his posts are counted up in the messages, the refresh button shows "new message(s)", but none are displayed - as desired, because they are muted.

I simply muted the thread, which lead to this behavior:

muted-count

I'm sure it's this muted discussion, because the counter corresponds to the posts in it since it was muted

The "frame" on the button pointed to "something special". I am missing an option to clear counter or supervise the muted thread, for example an entry with dropdown arrow and headline »MUTED«

This behavior occurs under Windows 10 in a Chrome browser. Since I had posted another post (after muting it to say that I had reported the identity theft - it may be that the person did not think about his/her actions), the report may be desired behavior. But then the posts must also be displayed.

After I updated the messages in the Android app, where the notifications were displayed then, the counter in the browser was also updated (= reset).

Deactivating the mute function after adding a subsequent reaction from me is useful in my opinion. The behavior of the browser should correspond to that of the app.

I suppose this can be closed now that https://github.com/bluesky-social/social-app/pull/2686 is merged?
