The [All] tab shows all notifications, including the contents of the [Priority] tab, and [Mentions] shows only mentions and replies.
For accounts that receive a particularly large number of notifications, checking the [Priority] tab allows you to confirm reactions from mutually followed accounts and large accounts without missing them.

I've been using JavaScript more than my native language since birth. I am nowhere and everywhere on the internet.
I build web apps and browser extensions in TypeScript as a web frontend programmer. I released Shadowban Scanner, a tool that detects shadowbans on X, and Restore Link Card, a tool that brings back link cards. Media outlets in Japan and abroad covered both tools. For iGEM 2023, I built the Wiki for Team Japan-United and helped the team win the Grand Prize. On my blog, I cover news about X and social media, test and troubleshoot bugs, and share frontend development insights.
