Inbox / Private messages broken on my profile
Well that's hopeful progress but I'm still curious whether anything valuable is hiding in the 99+ messages in my inbox! It is odd that Microsoft's own communities are tolerating such a basic feature being broken.
Thank you for posting, I am not sure I would categorize either private messages as a basic function or that we are tolerating it.
The Aurora update to the Microsoft Tech Community was a fundamental refactor of the underlying stack that powers the community and, despite our best planning, there have been some issues with it since launch in November last year. We are working through and addressing them with the engineering team based on priority and impact of the bug / issue identified.
Of the total active members around 10-15% of users have been impacted by this issue and less than 5% are still having issues.
I am hoping we have the final issues solved in either the very next release of the core platform or the one immediately after it, but I hope you can see we are not tolerating it - just prioritizing it. We are currently testing to confirm this and hope to have more to share shortly.
