Clicking on a notification opens the above page in your browser and reloads the screen. Reduce the number of missed notifications and the stress of worrying about notifications. (I personally wanted to solve this problem, but there was no solution, so I made one.)

The way it works is to fetch https://github.com/notifications with JavaScript, look at the DOM elements, check for updates & notify you. Therefore, there is no need for the extension to have login information, etc. We are not doing any strange communication, but we are disclosing the source code, so if you are concerned, please check the processing contents. (In case you find any problems, please contact us) https://github.com/hisw-29/github-desktop-notification

ちゃんと通知来ました!拡張機能のページを固定しておかなきゃいけない点と、僅かに通知が見づらいという点はありますが、デスクトップ通知で受け取れるようになると通知に気づきやすくてDiscussionが使いやすくなりました!助かりましたm(_ _)m
