!Friendica Support
Hi, I noticed that if I'm not @-mentioned in a public top level post by someone I don't follow, but are @-mentioned in a follow-up post by the same account, I do not get a notification (not an email, not under the bell, not as a desktop popup, not via the API in Tusky). However, if I'm @-mentioned in the top level post I do get those notifications. If I follow the sender I do get the notifications, even if I unfollow between receiving the top level post and the reply. I tested this by sending from another Friendica server. The Pleroma account I also @-mentioned in the tests did get the notifications. The receiving Friendica is on the latest stable.

Is this controlled by a setting? I already tried enabling "Allow unknown people to send me private messages?" but that made no difference.

Fortunately I don't think anybody ever tags me in ongoing discussions, but if they would, I would not know about it.
