    That doesn’t give you a notification when there’s a new comment. I assume that’s what op means by follow.

    I don’t think it’s possible, at least if it is I don’t know how either.

        On Lemmy, the save function (star icon) does give a number beside the comment count icon. Like 4 comments (2 new). Still a manual check, though.

        Also Lemmy’s comment discovery (the chat sort method) is harder to follow with context, not as good as Kbin’s unread highlighting was.

      It’s specifically only for top-level replies, fwiw. And you can see what you’re following under Activity Alerts.

      If you want notifications for other people’s comments (not top-level) they have bells for that per-comment.
