Idea: per-space notification defaults set by the owner

Bob Martinez Bob Martinez 1 month ago

Right now each member tunes their own notifications. It would help if the space owner could set a sensible default per space — for example, an Announcements space defaults to email-on-every-post.

Members could still override. Would this overstep, or is it a fair owner control?

Solid breakdown. The only thing I would add is to back up before making the change — better safe than sorry.

One caveat for larger communities: keep an eye on the indexes. At a few thousand rows the difference is night and day.

Could you say more about how you measured the result? I want to try this but I am not sure what success would look like.

Adding a small note: the same idea applies on mobile, just with a bit more attention to tap targets.

Tried this on a staging copy first and it behaved exactly as described. Confident enough to roll it to production now.
