Where's the inbox? How are we supposed to check when someone's replied to one of our comments or articles? (kbin.social)

Is this just not a feature that's been implemented yet, or am I missing something?

Strange, I enabled the setting, but I didn't see that there was a new comment on this article until I saw the comment number go up under this article on my profile page.

EDIT: tbh, I didn't notice there were links for "notifications" and "messages" until I moused over my username. Would be nice if there was a Reddit-style inbox icon right on the top bar.

It's just a performance issue, I've had delays getting my notifications too.

When you hover over your username, is there a number next to "notifications" that you can see, or do you have to click it before you can see what you have? I don't see a number, in my case.

When I click it, it shows nothing, but I wonder if it's just doing that because I've already opened my article and seen the new comments.

Yes there's a number on the dropdow and yes they disappear when you open the article and view the comments.

I actually just saw the number, so I know it exists now. It was next to my username.
