  • Every Mbin Comment is in the Form of Mentions
    freamon@preferred.socialF [email protected]

    It's a tricky problem.

    If a Lemmy or PieFed user Mentions you, it's because they're paging you and want to bring a comment to your attention.

    If an MBIN or NodeBB user Mentions you, it either because they're paging you, or because they're replying to a post or comment chain that you're involved in (it's been really noticeable when a NodeBB user has put my name in the post body as an explicit Mention, and then all the replies to the post from NodeBB / Mastodon / MBIN users have then also included it as an implicit Mention).

    The code for Mentions was written before the Notifications table was improved, so it's feasible that it can now try to accommodate implicit Mentions, but it'll never be perfect (because how does an MBIN user explicitly page another user that's going to get implicitly Mentioned anyway?).

    It's a bit like dealing with a emails from someone who always hits 'Reply All' - you're always being CC'd in, and sometimes it's relevant, and sometimes it's not.
