Allow me to filter out my own activity

[jwfuller]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm always frustrated when I am individually subscribed to a repo and the bot notifies me about my own activity. Example: "Issue closed by @jwfuller" or "New comment on issue by @jwfuller"

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to suppress notifications about my own activity

Describe alternatives you've considered Looked at available filtering options

This! Please fix this.

Something along the line of:

unsubscribe / [feature] comment

@Ontobetterthings Are you referring to personal app or channel. In a channel, everyone in the team is viewing the notifications. So, to show the current status, every event will be notified in the channel. We have recently rolled out mentions feature that enables you to only look at the ones you are required i.e. when you are a reviewer, assignee or mentioned in the comment. This should reduce the noise.

We have plans to enable personal notifications as part of personal app. There you would only be notified for the events you are needed.

I'd love to see this functionality, at the moment I often ignore notifications from GitHub bot as I assume it must be one for my own activity.

I don't need to be notified privately that I made a comment / commit / issue / PR etc. I think I'd know.

I wish I could do this:

subscribe org/repo comments - subscribe to all comments subscribe org/repo comments:-user/maciejduk - unsusbscribe from comments for user maciejduk
