Are real-time alerts boosting interaction on PF?

  • Thread starter TumblingDice

In summary, the conversation is about someone sending positive feedback on the new alerts feature. The person has been enjoying the updated alerts and even saw a new alert update while looking at the new alert popup dialog. They believe this feature will boost the pace of interaction on the platform. There is a question about how the alerts are pushed to the client, to which Greg responds that currently it requires a refresh but they may optimize it in the future to push alerts without a refresh.

Sending positive feedback on the new alerts. I've been enjoying extra smiles as I see Alerts update even as I sit back and watch. I even saw a new alert update when I was looking at the new alert popup dialog. Way cool and I expect this will be a great asset at boosting the pace of interaction here at PF.

EDIT: @Greg Bernhardt - Do you get to push the alerts to the client, or does the client have to send heartbeat checks, or does it depend on the platform/browser?

At the moment it requires a refresh. I can push the alert to yo without refresh but that takes more resources. Once we optimize things I might turn it on to see how the server handles it.
