Over the weeks I’ve sent a bunch of messages, like offering mod positions, asking for things etc. and I get no responses to about half of them.

Sure, nobody owes me a reply, but I’m wondering if there’s a different reason, such as:

  1. Ignoring all notifications, because there’s no immediate distinction between a DM or a comment reply

  2. Using an app that doesn’t support messages (which one would that be?)

  3. Federation issues (when sending a DM to a different instance)

Thoughts?

    Liftoff is a pretty popular app and it doesn’t have DM support either.

        Where? If I click on my profile I only see messages I’ve posted.

        Oh, it’s the bell at the top left, I had no idea. Kinda the same ambiguous UX as on Lemmy, would be nice if it had a dedicated inbox tab on the bottom.
