PMs are also in there so be careful what you delete. It’s new and I agree, too much clutter. I don’t need a notification that someone liked my post. Founder, if you want to keep the notifications for LIKES, I suggest you add a separate notification icon for PMs so they don’t get lost in the avalanche of likes.
It looks like the "Alert" for a PM can be deleted without deleting the PM itself. But I agree, a delete all or mark all read kinda thing would be useful. I've got like 97 left after I deleted a few and marked a few read and there is no way I'll clean them out.
I'm not as prolific as many. I just found that I had 6, over about the last month, which probably coincides with the site redesign. It's manageable for me. I do find it interesting what strikes a chord. No dislikes this time around.
One possible improvement is 3 of the referenced likes were for 1 comment. I had to click 3 times even though the first click showed the 3 member likes. Perhaps there's a way of streamlining.
I like the alerts much better than the former email messages. Would be nice to click through to the review where the comment was made instead of only to the comment that was liked.
I just noticed those today. I guess they have to be deleted to get the number icon to lessen/go away? I guess, in the spirit of this site, I'll start deleting notifications once I get to over 69 of them.
I also like the alerts. I had a lot of them, but it takes about 1 second to delete each one. Just click the icon in the uppermost left, and they all shift up, no page reload required or anything.
So I deleted all 79 alerts that I had. Since then I have received 2 more saying that they liked my comment. It would be nice if I knew WTF comment they were talking about.
Now you can see the text of the comment that was liked or hated, but is there a way to see the thread to which it belongs?
I also noticed that PM's don't always show in messages in an obvious way anymore. If you have an old thread with someone and they send you a new PM, it doesn't seem to sort to the top. But the alert does sort in a most recent order.
I like the new alerts. These are definitely better than checking email.
I would love it if I could get notified about new posts on a club I've bookmarked, or new comments on a thread I've bookmarked. I don't think I'd even need the My Feed page back if these alerts existed.

I sent the same thing in a PM to founder a few days ago
