    Can you pease add a bit of context , what do you mean by the “new comments” ?

    Since under the hood it just fetches api and displays a formatted data in a tray, it can be definitely be comments instead of posts

      i browse lemmy by sorting for new comments to see what posts are currently active; it’s effectively an rss feed, but it has many limitations like it’s narrow time limit.

        In this case - yes , this tray app may definitely have such functionality in a future iterations . As for new /active posts it already does this.

          … As for new /active posts it already does this.

          yeah, this is different that posts; it’s the comments and that setting on lemmy doesn’t seem to reflect what’s actually active.

          i plan to change that once i feel like i’ve taught myself enough rust to lend a hand in lemmy’s development.
