  • Navigation, Terminology, and the Activity Feed

    It looks like you can join groups. Groups are also called communities. Within groups are forums. Forums are also called discussions. You can also follow individual profiles. Do I have all of this right?

    Also, my activity feed shows activity from groups/communities that I haven’t joined. I’m not sure why. Is there any way to see only the activity happening in the groups/communities that I’ve joined?

    (Disclaimer: I am just another member) The forum is somewhat of a small island right now, and therefore there has been a a reluctance expressed any alternative to the [“Fire Hose”/Non Selective] nature of the incoming notifications.

    My practice has become, that I log on once a day-ish. I check my incoming messages, Then I scroll through the first five or so notifications. Then, I go to a couple of specific forums to see if I can contribute to any new discussions there that may or may not have made it to the big notifications queue at all.

    Maybe as this grows, allowing filters will not deprive the smaller forums and non-followed members of interaction.
