    Let me give an example of improvements I would find helpful:

    A: If two people debate a post I wrote, that may generate 20 notifications. I would prefer, if those 20 notifcations were grouped as 1.

    B: If a person creates a new post, addressed to me, asking a question, that post would be of the utmost importance to me — like receiving an e-mail — and often more important than replies.

    So what do you think? Could or should the Mastodon notification system help prioritize notifications?

    Both suggestions make a lot of sense to me. Would be great for busy accounts if Mastodon could implement something like that.

      @nikatjef A simple example. If everything that you say is usually important to me, I could flag you as someone whose notifications should have priority.

        Do you see this reply and did you get a notification? I removed your name tag but it is still a reply.

        @saarmuller@mastodon.social
        I have wondered about that as well. Personally I like to get notified when someone replies to me, but...

        This is Mastodon, you can filter on types of notifications as well... For example filter notifications when someone starts following you, or filter when someone favorites your comments, etc
