Firstly, sorry if this is not the adequate place for my question; if it’s the case, let me know.
The title may seem confusing, so let me detail it: I’m more of a commenter person, and some of my comments are replied, and Lemmy notifies me of those direct replies. However, there are moments when those replies receive third-party replies, so my comment turns into some kind of “sub-thread”, something that’s interesting for me to read and follow. For those third-party replies, I don’t receive notifications, so I have to access each direct reply that was notified so to find possible “sub-threads”.
There seems to me to be no option to “receive notifications for this post/comment/reply”, only the automatic opt-in of notifications for direct replies.
So really isn’t there such an option? Or is this an instance-specific feature and the instance I belong to (thelemmy.club) don’t have it?
A lot. Not the whole thread, but the sub-thread that was started by my comment. I’m both a writer and a reader. I often use my comments to embrace different perspectives or ideas, bringing new possibilities to the table and contributing to the overall discussion, and these comments I made tend to get replies that, in turn, will be replied. This creates a good environment of dialogue, when many people contribute with different perspectives. And I like to read and ponder every one of them.
