So, I would say we should just drop this magical enabling of things upon watch (neither solution 1 nor solution 2 from your proposal, @surli ) and go back to a simpler solution for the opt-in that we seem to be targeting (let’s call this “Solution 3”):
all event types are enabled by default - at global level
no filter means no notifications at all : not watching anything means not watching anything
when a user watches a location - manually or automatically - they will start receiving whatever event types they have configured in their profile (or inherit from global level).
if we want to avoid confusion of the user here (which may wonder why they don’t receive any notification when all events are enabled), maybe we can display, in their profile, a warning that they haven’t yet subscribed to any location and they should use the switch in the bell menu to do so.
I just created an issue describing this change Loading... .
Should anyone have anything against this change or see something wrong with it, please speak now!
