How would I go about getting notifications for this site on mobile?

Tags: ask, help

Is the functionality for that built in yet?

    That functionality does not exist yet. However, there is an issue for it in the to-do list.

      They didn't mention how specifically, but I think they've set up a web monitor in hermit pointed to https://tildes.net/notifications/unread . I believe that polls the page for changes and notifies you of any.

      Hermit also allows RSS feeds as a notification mechanism, but since Tildes doesn't have those I doubt that's what they're using :P

    I don't think that this would be viable as long as there isn't an Tildes app, and Tildes apps will only start appearning once the API is available.

    E: Seems like there is an notifications API that could be used, so maybe that feature could come faster.
