Is it possible to set notifications for new post for magazines you moderate and/or are subscribed to? (kbin.social)

Since we are building new communities, it's important that those of us who want to play an active role setting up these communities, either as active users or moderators, know when people engage in them.

I would like to know if it's possible to get notifications when posts are made in certain communities.

In settings, there are two options for that. Under 'notifications' but you will need to login to the site and look near your userbame. The notifications will appear there. You will not receive push notifications on your phone.

Update: So I tried this and I started to get all sort of notifications from magazines I don' follow. I think the bug is in that these posts had tags that are used in the magazines I follow. I don't know really what happened, but I was getting 50-something notifications every 10 minutes, so I had to turn those off :/

I use these settings, but the bottom two will show you the new posts/treads in the subscribed magazine. I too, was getting a lot of notifications for every new item in kbin I subscribed to. I changed it to just what I posts and comments. I don't mind setting my "home" screen to my subscribed content and then going back to all the federated content as well. I do want to know when someone replies to my content so I can continue the conversation better.
