OK, looks like there's an API for mentions and comment replies.

In 1.0 there's a combined inbox feature

Hmmm, in what way would that be more useful over getting comments in general? Or is that for use case where you only want replies to those posts specifcially? But that would only work for direct replies and not nested ones anyway.

E: I missed the mentions part somehow, I think that that one could be useful but I still can't think of use case for replies.

Replies are for if you have a bot in a community you aren't otherwise monitoring for comments.

It's for when there are either too many comments in the community or you aren't a mod, and you're only interested in replies to a certain account's posts.

It's a different use case from all comments, you would normally want one or the other.

Mentions should be an extension to the current DM notifications.
