Discourse I’m beginning to like more BUT some things seem nuts I need get clear on …
By “Latest” posts does it mean a LIST OF ALL POSTS (I mean ALL posts) with LATEST FIRST?
Asking for a friend
TT
Which means “Sort: Latest Post First” (I assume ?)
@pmario, pushing on with this a bit, for the sake of clarity … the LATEST column should (if you scrolled enough) include the OLDEST too at its end?
Globally pinned, THEN latest first.
And “new” (not updated) posts have blue dots:
And by “new”, discourse means “new to me”.
Minus categories or posts or tags that you have set to Mute 
Also, your personal “notification list” when you click on your avatar is technically all of the stuff you’ve chosen to be notified about.
I have my settings so that I only get notified for first posts of new topics, and thereafter only on topics I participate in.
I can still browse into Latest or others, but I’m not attempting to read every post.
In @boris last post, look at the image of the personal “notification list.
I have found that the icons on the left can be very informative and may influence which I care about.
Also clicking on your avatar > person Icon > summary > notifications you and review all “your notifications” in a full screen and filter them using the items to the left.
I believe you could set this to your default view or capture the link and open it in a tab.
