Notifications

OK this thing is bugging me daily so raising a thread about it.

The notifications popup that we have, why does it have to mark all the five visible comments as read when you keep it open for a few seconds? This is just really frustrating as the notifications themselves don't give any clue what the target post is, so after they are all marked read, I have to click through all of them even if they would all concern only a few posts.

Also, why just 5? I would love to have it scrollable, so I can read my notifications from the menu and they would be only marked read when I have seen the actual post in question.

This is how Facebook works and tbh it's fantastic :)

Do people like the way it is or can I make an attempt to change it?

@rich1 it's only a few lines of javascript to remove from the code. Bringing in a new user setting would be extra code to maintain.
