I have noticed some new behaviour in the ‘all notifications’ menu on the homepage which I find pretty concerning. If there are unread comments, as soon as one hovers over the comment window it automatically marks it as read. Both in the notifications menu AND in the file. This has proven detrimental as when just checking in on a comment, it clears! Often I do not respond to notifications in the notification menu from the homepage, and instead prefer to return to the actual file when I am working on that project, to see the comment properly and respond while looking at all the file’s context nearby. Now when I enter the file the comment bubble is marked as read and so it’s missed! This is terrible UX especially if one is busy merely scrolling through their notifications and now they’re all being marked as read. At least provide the user to turn off this ‘hover-to-mark-as-read’ feature.
See below example: After hovering over the first list item, it marks it as read. Just like that. Awful!
