So not everyone had 1000 issues in the database. So for the guy
who opened one issue 2 months ago, instead of never hearing from
dlang again, he gets a note that he has to jump on GitHub and
subscribe to the new issue.

I searched for the appropriate text (not hard to find the common
text) in my email and deleted all the messages in 30 seconds. You
can do the same.
