RE: Feature Request: Flagging Notifications
The notifications are actually something that still has a lot of room for improvement. :-)
Unfortunately, the notifications are only a one-way street at the moment. There is currently no communication between the user and the instance that ‘generates’ the notifications. The notifications can be retrieved for each user, but not edited.
It could be solved locally in the browser, but that would mean that you would only see the markers in the browser you used to set the marker.
So I don't hold out much hope for you at the moment...
So if anything you would need some kind of a dedicated overlay? Like a plugin or a browser extension? But it's not like Steemit could provide that type plugin itself, right? Even if there was some external overlay I'd rather keep my Steemit vanilla, or at least I can't help it.
Besides, are there any plans on enabling some type of private messaging? I mean, your notifications are already kind of private I suppose. I'm saying if Steemit ever was to redo or improve the notification system with a few upgrades. But then I'm jus spitballing and probably underestimate how complicated this stuff tends to be.
Thanks for the answer anyhow! Appreciate it!
Not from Steemit, but maybe this is what you want: https://steemchat.org/
There is a problem at the moment. The dev has been notified.
No, everyone can see your notifications. These are mine: https://steemit.com/@moecki/notifications
Maybe not from Steemit, but from witnesses or other developers. For example, I'm still working on a few changes...
Damn, I wasn't aware. I don't really understand why anybody needs to see my notifications honestly, or my wallet status for that matter. I'm sure there must be a reason for it, but I don't get it. Nonetheless, given how everybody's stuff is accessible through public URLs it should be possible to clone your notifications somewhere more pliable. Same as the the invidual links those notifications are pointing to.
Not sure if I prefer it this way, but I like not having to use your keys on third party sites/extensions. In theory I guess.
Steemchat is still down, but I'll check it out later.
Everyone can see everything, same for your wallet. How do you believe comments and replies are rewarded?
@kafio do you have a solution for this? How can we separate the notifications, and label (save) what is important to us and what is answered?
By now my only option is to give an upvote and remember whom of the 145 notifications I already read/answered.
I get that to a certain extend but I said in another reply I fail to see why everybody needs to know where you're transferring your money to, or what the total balance of your wallet is. Not talking about tips, but exchanges for example.
That's what the blockchain is... transparency.
Hah, fair enough.
Well you got your answer though I would not call it transparancy...
It’s now clear how the extension works. It saves the notifications you want to keep or mark as important, and you can choose which ones to save. Do you have any suggestions? I think you mentioned me in that problem

Sure, but I don't understand why your personal wallet page needs to be. I get why maybe wanting to double check if something went through, but that's you and me. Don't think the general public necessarily needs to know if transferred a bit of STEEM to an exchange. Besides, I think it kind of puts a target on you back if you're a power user. But again, I'm pretty ignorant regarding the subject.
Thanks!
