I'd vote for alternative approach from comment #15 - this allows us to add
new options later (e.g. friends):
Show notifications for:
[ ] Mentions
[ ] Replies
[ ] From all friends
[ ] From mutual friends
[ ] Foo
[ ] Bar

Gwibber notification preferences are confusing
Show notifications for:
( ) All messages
( ) Mentions and replies only
( ) Do not display notifications
This is a malformed sentence.. The header is Show.. while the option is
Do not display , contradictory
A better way would have been:
[ ] Display notifications for
( ) All messages ( )
@Jorge: yes, you are correct.
I don't think that an option with radiobuttons is a good solution - it
is not flexible enough to set notification rules, keeping in mind than
other notification rules might be added in future.
However, the second approach from comment #15 (correct number :) is
easier change suggested by Calum Benson

Bugs,
Vadim, you mean comment #13, right?
I like the second approach on comment #15. I also noticed the malformed
sentence, but I don't know if it's that important to form good sentences
anyway.

@Vadim Rutkovsky : Those options do not exist yet.. So not point in adding
checkboxes foo , bar just for something in future.. :)
Lets stick to the bug and get the wording right for now.. and when the other
options exits, we can probably add them later.

Gwibber notification preferences
Several wishlist defects were submitted - autocomplete friends (bug 247015) and
message filtering (bug 395054). These defects might require notification
options.
So I'd like to work out a scalable decision on notification settings, assuming
that new options will be added. IMHO it is much
What I was pointing out is that 'All Messages' isn't clear. 'Mentions
and Replies' is clearly a subset of 'All Messages', so what else is
included? Does 'All Messages' = status updates + mentions + replies? Or
is there something else in there? The dialog isn't clear about this.
An alternative to
As status updates includes mentions and replied, maybe, this item
should be renamed to other updates and moved to the bottom of the
list?

Whups, seems I created a small bike shed. :)
My intent with the radiobuttons was mainly to get rid of the behavior where one
checkbox would made the other one not work.
A side effect was that we got three levels of notification noise, perhaps a bit
similar to a stop light. Maybe that is a good
Since this bug is fixed, at a minimum please move the discussion to a
new bug.

Also (somewhat unrelated to this bug), the Start service at login
label is quite technical. Perhaps changing it to something like Start
watching for new messages when I log in would be more understandable.
I think this makes sense too.
Can you open that issue as a separate bug?

Is it possible to describe what 'All messages' refers to? This option is
a bit pointless without that information, since a user has no idea what
they are enabling/disabling.

Feedback from the docs team: The proposed change looks much less
confusing and we don't have any doc strings/screenshots that depend on
it as far as I can tell, so making the modification should be fine.

One thing that could be done here is to use radiobuttons instead of checkboxes.
After some discussion with Ken and Paul Cutler (doc writer) on IRC, we came up
with the following suggestion:
Show notifications for:

( ) Mentions and replies only
( ) Do not display notifications

Yup. He is right. If both settings aren't checked, Gwibber won't give
