I also have a question and a couple of notes after trying coracle for a few days, if you don’t mind. Are you using Gossip model relaying? Even after running for a while, and trying a refresh, coracle did not seem to use my relay list. Of the relays that it used, half or more timed out nearly every time I posted. Watching the console in Dev Tools, it seemed the relays were down. I agree on notifications. It’s a better flow to show how someone interacted, without having to click through to see how, since many interactions don’t require a response. I want to say on the positive, I really like how coracle handles threads, and the modal pop over for displaying details, etc. Threads seem to be difficult to get right, and coracle seems to do a very good job of it.

Thanks, it's of course a work in progress, but nice to see people saying good things about my work. Coracle does follow the gossip model, but the result is that many times it uses relays based on context rather than your selections. So when creating a new note, it should be publishing to your write relays (let me know if not), but most of the time it will be looking at relays your follows use (for loading feeds), or relays a given note hinted or was found on (for publishing replies). The goal is deliverability, but it's not an exact science. One thing I could definitely do better is keep closer track of relay health and ignore bad connections. I'm sure there are still bugs, so let me know if that explanation doesn't account for what you're seeing.
