I'm guessing someone who has been deleted (spammer?) sent you a PM after you already cleared your notifications. The notification counter goes down to -1, the app sees
notification_count != 0and draws a special little marker for the negative notification count.Hopefully the problem will fix itself next time you get a notification. If this isn't what happened, I have no idea how you would fix this without database access. Ask the server admins in that case, I guess.
It went away when I cleared my unread messages.
One heck of race condition. Rust mean safe as corroded metal.
Rust means safe as in memory safety. Humans are fallible, you can still have database bugs, no matter the programming language.
