New notification mode request

aaronjamt

On many of the servers I have joined, I don't want to set notifications to "all messages" because of the spam that causes. However, if I ask a question and then turn off my screen, many people just type their reply without using the "reply" feature or mentioning me, meaning I never see those notifications. It would be really helpful to have a mode between "@mention only" and "all messages" where it would act like "@mention only" most of the time but, if you post any message, it will automatically change to "all messages" for X minutes. This way, you can set that mode for "help me" and "questions" channels so that you aren't spammed with other people's questions but you can see replies even if it doesn't specifically mention you.

    Just don't turn off your screen when you ask a question. Easy solution!

    I was using that as a quick example. I frequently ask a question then go do other IRL things or respond to other messages or apps, etc. It's not always that simple. I also posted this on mobile because I think it's more useful there but I can also see it being useful on desktop.
