Apple just recently added support!

That’s awesome news. Nothing is really holding wefwef from being able to have feature parity with Apollo then
People actually liked getting notifications from Reddit? That’s like the first thing I turn off when installing a Reddit app lol
I like being able to see replies and such in a timely fashion so that I can be helpful to my fellow users. I’m probably a bit abnormal as I don’t mute notifications on WhatsApp/iMessage group messages either and most people I know do.
You might already be aware, but Lemmy can send you an email every time someone replies to your comments.
Just go to Settings in Lemmy and make sure the ‘Send notifications to Email’ box is checked. Assuming you have notifications turned on with your email app, then you can be notified in a timely fashion.
I know it’s not as good as in-app notifications but it’s a workaround that is good enough for me.
