If you are tagged (using the @ sign) in a comment you will, in addition to receiving a notification (applies only to tasks) also receive an item in your inbox. The purpose of the inbox is to ensure that comments requesting your specific attention don't get lost.
If there are any unread items in your inbox, they will be displayed in the right column of your focus dashboard, beneath the personal development section, sorted from the youngest to the oldest item.
Items in the inbox are automatically marked as read when you reply rr react to the comment in which you were tagged. You can also manually mark inbox elements as read manually by clicking the checkbox icon in association to the relevant inbox item.
