Suggestion: subscribing with notifications

Over on ~creative, the idea of a regular photo challenge came up, which I think is a great idea and I'm looking forward to having a go at. But I'm notoriously bad at remembering to keep track of stuff like that.

What might be useful to help solve that problem would be the ability to subscribe with notifications. So I can get a notification - perhaps in 'unread', perhaps in a separate area - when a post is made with the tag creative.photochallenge.annouce or in the group ~creative.photochallenge, meaning I don't forget about that week's challenge announcement.

This could be useful for other things you want to keep track of: music.newreleases or hobbies.geocaching or whatever particular thing you're slightly more interested in than just being subscribed to it.

      Oh dammit. I read the docs but I always forget to check the tracker. Thanks for the heads up.

          It even says "comma separated" on the title for the tag field. I am not having a good Noticing Things day...

          but what if i want to follow/filter out only "functionality suggestion notifications" posts?

          jokes aside, do you know (since you seem to be pretty knowing) if there's any plans for working filtering (positive or negative) with multiple tags? for example, like I want 'news', and I want 'games', but i don't want posts with both of those?

    I don't know if this is relevant but in the reddit thing where you entered and then got money and everyone gave it to you (I can't remember the name of it) they made one with IFTTT. I know it...

    I don't know if this is relevant but in the reddit thing where you entered and then got money and everyone gave it to you (I can't remember the name of it) they made one with IFTTT. I know it would be nice for it to be inbuilt but if it never does that's an option.
