@ someone in a comment and they get a rich, real-time toast — plus a fully rebuilt notifications page that tells you exactly what happened and where.

Mentions and a brand-new notification center

Two upgrades to the plumbing that keeps you connected.

@mentions

Type @username in any comment and we'll link the mention, ping the user, and drop it into their notifications feed. It works across board comments, replies, and future post types. Notifications land as toast pop-ups in real time when the recipient is online.

The new /notifications

Rebuilt from scratch:

  • Rich cards with actor avatar, action verb, and target preview
  • Nine notification kinds including likes, comments, replies, follows, mentions, achievements, board published, karma milestones, and admin broadcasts
  • Mark all read with a single tap
  • Deep links that jump straight to the pin, comment, or badge

Fewer distractions, more signal

Email digests still exist for the important stuff — comment threads and reaction milestones — but the in-app notification center is now the source of truth for everything else.
