"Duplicate" notifications of the same event from multiple triggers

[vrooje]

Expected behavior

If a Talk post triggers a notification two different ways (e.g. because I got an @mention and was also subscribed to the thread), it should only show up once in my notifications.

Current behavior

I often get multiple notifications in a row of the same thread/post. Recently I got four in a row, because there was an @team, @admin, I am subscribed to the board, and... I'm not sure why the fourth one happened. I got multiple emails as well.

I'm enjoying the irony of this happening with a post about missing notifications.

Steps to replicate

Subscribe to a thread or board, post a new post @$self mentioning. Or perhaps have someone else do it; I haven't checked whether self-tagging induces a notification.

Additional information

Apologies if this is a duplicate or posted in the wrong place.

I’ve just had duplicate notifications for a single mention too. I think this might be a bug in the Talk Rails app
