Coalescing Notifications Associated with Interactive Digital Content

The technology described herein is capable of generating and presenting graphical user interfaces for displaying shared content, configuring space objects (also simply called spaces), posting digital content items to various spaces, inviting other users to contribute digital content items to various spaces, forking digital content items posted in one space or post object to another space or post object, contextual searching, posting rich comments in association with a post including graphical and textual data, and so forth. Further, the technology may provide suggestive search based on the spaces associated with a user, generate and exchange data with other nodes on a computer network, generate notification data including notifications reflecting updates posted to spaces by various users, and coalesce related comments to reduce number of notifications that each user receives and/or through which a user may have to navigate or scroll through.
