Currently, there is a bug that occurs at seemingly random with notifications. When someone replies to you in a thread that you are tracking, sometimes the notifications take a few days instead of a few seconds to show up in your notifications tray.
For example, this reply from an engineer did not appear in my notifications inbox until just now despite the reply being 2 days old:
It might be related to recent announcement threads getting a lot of negative engagement bogging down the forum servers.
Expected behavior
It is expected that notifications would be sent in a timely manner.
Yeah, Iāve also noticed this. Not sure if thereās a search filter way to check for replies ahead. Been missing a lot of stuff that are reply related.
in:replies though I donāt see a way to search for who was replied to
Looks like Iām not the only one! Notifications for new announcements (āWatching First Postā) are usually days late so Iāve disabled it for now, reply notifications usually come in after a few hours.
I also get āGhost Notificationsā too.
ie, I get a reply notification, go onto it, and interact with it. A day later, notification pops up and Iāve seen Iāve already replied to it (this implies that Iāve already acted upon that notification and dismissed it).
Also pretty sure it still happens even when I dismiss notifications, too.
