   I'm incredibly proud of the new Loops System Notifications, allowing me to send notifications to every user when we ship new features!

   It's a bit complicated, but basically we have a json file that gets checked every hour and when a new system notification is found, it dispatches a job to create a new notification for every local user.

   What about new users? Good question, we use a model observer to dispatch active system notifications to each new user.

   Loops ❤️ our community

     We only store the system message id per notification, those huge html payloads are only stored once in the database and cached in memory when fetched.

     They do expire, with the exception of the "Welcome to Loops" one, I set the expiry date to 2027, but we may need to reduce that

     @Skivling Neither Favourites (aka Bookmarks) or Likes are public, in the sense that only you can view the feed. Others may be able to see if you liked a video by the liked feed.
