  Usually i would subscribe for new comments when posting a comment on a particular article on this site and then i would get an email to confirm follow. But when i posted comment on September 29th it had different comment UI. I still selected toggle to get notified about comments. Since a few days i started getting emails about ANY comment on ANY article on that site. And if i press Unsubscribe or Subscription Settings in such email it doesn’t list any post from this site and UI looks different. Can i have a granular control again to comments on which article i want to subscribe? Or at least an option to completely unsubscribe. I am getting flooded with emails about comments i am not interested in. So far only happened with one site, but i haven’t posted comments on any other WordPress.com based site recently.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hey @wr00t, thank you for letting us know; I’d just noticed that as well and am sharing your feedback with our developers.

  You can unsubscribe for now here in the meantime, if you didn’t already. If you tap the three-dots menu icon next to a given site, you’ll find toggles there.

  Hi. The link you gave shows same list as when i click in the email. But it says i am not subscribed to any site and in comments tab i don’t see any comment from this site, although i am subbed to some articles there after commenting. Since yesterday i am not getting any emails about comments on that site, so maybe something is already done about this. Or maybe nobody commented there in 2 days.

  Hi @wr00t, this is fixed now. You’ll want to unsubscribe from any sites that are sending too emails, and you can feel good about toggling that option going forward. Let us know if you need more help!
