Day 50 trillion of begging Github for a functional notification system so I can stop receiving infinite numbers of emails from all the bots and similar things commenting on PRs.

Also being designated a codeowner in a large repo, the number of notifications I get daily from the number of PRs is fucking absurd, with no way of turning them off. Drives me up the wall daily. If a colleague doesn't straight up send me a PR in a DM, I'll basically never see it because I've given up on the notification screen a looooong time ago.

Doesn’t unwatching a repo limit notifications to mentions and participated threads?

Codeowners are added as a reviewer to every PR that touches a file under their (team) ownership. In a large codebase it can easily happen that a large % of PRs changes something you're a codeowner for.

Have you been able to try trailer.app?

It’s fine for small projects. I clear mine daily, and it’s the sole place I do any communication management.

It's a workaround, but why not use email filters for this?

[sensanaty]

Well I do (basically 99% of github emails are auto-purged from my email inbox), but the problem is that the github platform itself on the notifications page is unusable. It'd be nice if I could use it!
