Click on the icon with your avatar at the top right (same one where your notifications appear), and then the silhouette item at the bottom. From there, Preferences.
Direct links:
-
For watching / tracking configuration: https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/my/preferences/tracking
-
For email settings: https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/my/preferences/emails
Note that my in the URLs above is a “magic” endpoint which should redirect to the right place for any logged-in user.
You can also configure watching for any particular category by browsing to that category and selecting the bell icon.
I double-checked, and the category is muted by default; the @packager group is configured to change that to watching for any new members (a one time thing when someone joins the group — it isn’t fixed that way).
This seemed like an obvious good idea to me, and I apologize for the surprise. After Flock, we’re looking at making a real Discourse Team so it is no longer At The Whim of Matthew, which is definitely not the proper Fedora way to do things.
