Discussion on: How do you manage your github notifications?

I leave on email notifications since i’m pretty quick at email triage and I can snooze stuff that I know I want to get back to. I also use Trailer.app in my Mac menu bar which mostly just sends me pushes for my open source stuff (work is not included in these). Finally, for code review (90% of my notifications) I have an internal tool at work that catches non-mentioned relevant code, and when I have an hour or 2 each day or 2 I use Refined Github’s “open all in tabs” for bulk catch up & review. Generally the goal is to avoid context switching, so when i’m actively triaging or collaborating I like Trailer’s notifications, and otherwise I let them build up then do mass review when I can give it my focus.

I’ll link up these tools when I am on a computer with a keyboard
