howdy! i’m wondering how y’all deal with a backlog of notifications? i slacked off a bit checking my notifs and now have a lovely 605 to look at… i love seeing all of my notifs to correct/explain my ids, respond to questions and pings, so on. but if i just click the notif button on the site i have o…

use @pisum ’s tool https://jumear.github.io/stirfry/iNat_observations_updates.html

My method is to hold down on an individual one so it opens a new tab and do that so they don’t vanish. 600 is a lot to do that with. A lot of the time, unfortunately, I accept the loss and don’t get to them all. Oftentimes it will be a lot of notifications for the same thing from a same person and I…

On the Android app they don’t vanish but you can only see the most recent 200.

I try to open and check each one, but the sequence is weird. After I have cleared back to midnight, I find a few more from ‘today among yes…

this is incredible, thank you. Is there a section where all user-created tools like this are visible?

I wonder if @pisum has a list? Otherwise search across the forum to see if he has answered your other questions. PS found a link on his profile https://github.com/jumear/stirfry

Over 600 is impressive! I’ve gotten more than 400 a few times, but not 600. When I get a whole lot of notifications to deal with I set aside a day to deal with them. I can usually clear them in a day, especially if I skip past recent observations from those observers who I “follow” but who post M…
