Notifications won't show.`
-
Along the top of my WordPress where I have the Write, Profile, and Bell icons whenever I click on the bell icon it will not show me notifications about likes follows or comments even though I know for a fact that people I know have liked it (my blog) ect. I have email notifications turned off but not bell notifications. Some help would be appreciated. I am using Chrome on Windows 10
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Sorry, not a solution, but I just wanted to say that I am having this problem too.
I have an orange dot on the notifications bell, meaning I have notifications, but when I click on it, I just get the loading circle swirling around indefinitely.It never works when I’m on a mobile device and, as of today, it’s not working on the pc either.

Please read what follows in case it applies.
Our stats are page view stats. https://en.support.wordpress.com/stats/ If I visit your blog and click into 10 posts that will be recorded as 1 visitor and 10 page views. But please do not assume that everyone who clicks a follow, like, share, reblog or comment link actually reads the post on your blog because odds are they may not.
Follow, like, share, reblog or comment clicks are not page views. In fact, follows, likes, shares, comments and reblogs are completely misleading when you are talking about page view stats. That is because your followers and anyone with a WordPress.com/Gravatar account who is logged into WordPress.com can “follow” your blog, “like”, “share” and “reblog” your posts and “comment” in several locations such as the Reader, without ever clicking into your blog and creating a single page view stat. Subscribers control how frequently they receive your posts (instantly, daily, weekly) and can comment without clicking into the blog.
Logged in wordpress.com members can read full posts in the wordpress.COM Reader now, so there is no incentive for them to click into your site. We cannot prevent the full display of a whole post in the WordPress.com Reader, and that’s one of the reason why I archived my blogs.
