Is it just me or the Mastodon "advanced web interface" don't show the notifications status like the normal interface does?

@voidabyss on the advanced interface the notifications just show up at the top of the column instead.
@freemo I get that, obviously not a huge deal, I don't pin the notification column, so a number indicator on top of the bell would be very helpful. Thanks!

@voidabyss @freemo @SpaceLifeForm yes. The notification bell icon really needs to show if there are any new notifications. I hear a alert noise and I'm not sure what it's from. I'll close the notification column to save space. I have other columns open and need to horizontal scroll the Mastodon UI a lot.
I believe there is some kind of delivery race condition.
Many times I have heard the toot, but nothing new showed up immediately.
It may depend upon your timezone and the phase of the moon. ;-)

I may be a combination of delays and you how you access. I use FF, and the Advanced Web Interface served by my home instance (infosec.exchange) which is Glitch-soc. On desktop. If I use FF on mobile, it is not the same (it cannot due to lack of screen space).
