Why would you want Github push notifications? Nothing on Github is urgent enough to disrupt your life like that.
- nbar1 7y agoI would quite like to know when a PR is in movement that I'm involved in.
- mdtusz 7y agoEmail notifications.
- hombre_fatal 7y agoI'd rather get an app notification than an email notification for pretty much everything I can think of. I'd be surprised if I wasn't in the vast majority on this.
- tenryuu 7y agoWell, if I can consolidate all my notifications to email, then only one application on my phone needs to have a constant/reoccurring connection to a server for push notifications. Instead of fifteen of the things all acting independently. Benefit of using an app notification always would come down to platform specific experiences. But replying to github threads over email has been something that I don't have to think twice about
- driverdan 7y agoWhy is that so important that it needs to disrupt you? Constant notifications are terrible for productivity.
- hombre_fatal 7y agoWell, you could say the same thing about most notifications including most emails, yet people presumably like notifications so much they'll get them delivered straight to their wrist watch. I don't see how Github is much different in this regard. Besides, maybe you want the notifications while on the clock.
- driverdan 7y agoEmail notifications should be disabled. Email is also never urgent enough to disrupt your life.
