Hey bargainers, first time poster. Looking for a discussion about the deal notifications UI opened by hovering on the site's bell icon on the header bar and the /notifications page.
Surely the notifications should be deal-centric and not user-centric. By that I mean the notifications should not really concern "who" uploaded the deal and their user image. That can be found inside the deal. I suggest the notifications UI should be deal-centric and include an image of the deal or promote the store name for easier scanning by eye. The product & store determines if I click on the deal, so that should be more prominent. Perhaps there is a good reason users are promoted, maybe some people only click on deals by certain users :P Let me know as I'm new to the OzB as a community. I technically subscribed to a store or particular tag, not an individual.
The text of the deal is quite cluttered, so the store name is placed at the end of the deal text. I like that its bold.
I like the "mark as read" buttons though, they feel great to click with instant response.
What are your thoughts? Alternatively, how do you optimize your notifications, any particular tips?
