Diaspora dynamic notifications and messages

ACP Andrei Cristian Petcu Public Seen by 68

Give Diaspora* the ability to push notifications and messages from server to clients so we can see notifications and messages without refreshing the page. All the other social networks are doing it. It can be done with websockets and with a ajax fallback for old browsers.

I love this feature on #Friendica, it'd be great to get it on D* too!

why should we vote for this? to give it some more attention? that's okay of course, but it makes me wonder if there are any objections against it. I can't think of one... so with my limited knowledge about it, I'd say definitely YES.

I think it'd be great to get this. We could even make use of a good jquery notification lib so that notifications could appear in a corner of the browser as they happen.

Yep. I think having a vote on it is still necessary to check we all want these things...

Please don't put up a vote without explaining a specific possible implementation and what technology would be involved. We had this feature but it got removed due to technical issues. Saying "I want this!" one more time (it's about the 80th one in the history of this project) is completely meaningless and a waste of everyone's time.

wouldn't it be better to wait for someone who doesn't want it, and then vote?

We could even wait for someone who wants to start working on that and another one who doesn't want that feature. ;)

I'd just like to say that it's important that users are given the option of disabling notifications. I know several people (myself included) who find popup notifications distracting.
