Is there a way here to follow users without getting a million notifications every time they do anything?

For example, if I could narrow it down to new posts, that would be helpful. As it stands, I get notifications for every comment.

Are the notif settings not enough for what you want? gemini://bbs.geminispace.org/settings/notif I unchecked some things there and got what I wanted.

Yes, @softwarepagan you should probably disable the "Comment by followed user" in

— /settings/notif

There is no per-user setting for that, though.

Isn't that... my dude that's what following someone is *for*

Ah, I just remembered there is actually a way to follow people "passively", using the post and comment index pages in feed mode. For example:

— /u/softwarepagan/index/posts?feed

@Atomic-Germ clearly you did not read the comment I added after posting. @Half_Elf_Monk and @skyjake more helpfully pointed out the existence of notification settings, which allow me to customize this the way I want.
