Does the "subscribe" function work on degree forum?

[cookderosa]

I've subscribed to numerous threads over the past month and selected to be emailed updates. I've never received a single email. Does anyone else get emailed updates?

Maybe my account isn't configured properly or the functionality just doesn't work.

Uhhh.... I didn't even know that was a thing. I'm not good with details lol. I will say that the way I get updated, is when I open the page, I click the "what's new" option, and it used to take me to the new posts- now it takes me to the activity feed first, and I have to select new posts (not sure why that changed after all these years) but that's how I'm able to read every new post every day. (or I try to anyway)
Oh, so I forgot to add, that I'll see any thread I'd previously posted in on that list by a green arrow <-- and so I know that there may be a question or comment in there. I didn't know about subscribing lol.
