Hi folks,
One of the frustrating things I have had with working with GitHub is the lack of email notifications for many actions:
- Reactions - sometimes I ask a question or seek approval, and they come as thumbs-up or similar
- Edits - user edits a comment, but only the original is emailed, sometimes those edits now include question or something else that needs to be acted on. An example of this was
https://github.com/eclipse/lsp4j/issues/610#issuecomment-1115030941 - I got an email notification that said "to solve the buildnumber problem, will try to find it again" but I didn't get a notification that the "update ..." had been edited into the message. (I know this wasn't on eclipse platform repo, but it was a recent example of the issue)
Now that we have a bit of GitHub experience collectively under our belts, how do you all handle this? Am I missing something? Should there be policy around this (e.g discourage edits that substantially change meaning, don't use reactions for stuff you expect others to react to)?
Thanks for your input!
Jonah
