 One thing that many people have requested is notification icon badges for Toot!. The main reason they have not been implemented is that I've always found the use of notification badges a very toxic pattern to drive addictive behaviour on social media apps, always trying to nudge you back to opening the app. To everyone's surprise, Toot! v17.0 is out! This is the first in a series of releases that implement support for new Mastodon features. More will come in the near future, but this version offers: * Full support for all new types of notifications in Mastodon 4.0, including admin notifications. I know there is a lot more people want, like editing, but those are bigger features and I thought it better to push something out the door, so I will keep releasing 17.x versions for a while to push out more new features. They will mainly focus on adding Mastodon v3.5 and v4.0 features that Toot! is missing, plus any little bits of polish that would make me happy. Oh, also, this release is set on a phased rollout so I can catch any serious issues before it rolls out to everyone, so it will become available gradually over the coming week. There might be a way to force an update in the App Store if you don't want to wait but I'm not 100% sure? Has anyone tried Toot! on iOS 14 yet? I haven't wanted to mess with any of the betas just yet so I haven't had a chance, but it would be nice to know if there are any issues I should be planning to fix. Also wondering if Toot! triggers the paste warning on iOS 14. I do check the state of the pasteboard in order to show a paste button on the keyboard toolbar, but not sure if that will trigger the warning or not. |

I was thinking, though, that this mainly applies to things like favourites and other things that you don't REALLY need to know right now. So I was thinking enabling them for mentions only (and maybe some other things that require immediate attention like admin report notifications) might make sense. What do you think?
