My opinion on the recent update:
Personally, Im kind of neutral on it.
On one hand, it is a bit annoying. Because i open the notifications thinking someone replied to a comment/did smth with a fanfic of mine and its just someone liking it. Most of the time, i dont even recall commenting it.
On the other hand, i get notifications every time I check in. And it makes me happy seeing that little orange dot! Because that means something of mine made someone smile!
Tl;Dr: idc much for it, kind of 50/50.
