About email notifications frequency
We apply a minimum delay between two consecutive forum email notifications, which depends on the type of notification. This is done to avoid the feeling of spam: we believe it’s a better experience to receive one email listing 10 comments, than 10 different notification emails, within the same day.
There are three types of frequencies:
- Direct mentions and answers: not more frequent than every 5 minutes (this feels like real time, and is commonly used by similar apps). This corresponds to the following email notifications:
- Ada Lovelace mentioned your name in a comment
