- We're working on improving the UX. Issue filters allow you to type now. UX team work can be seen in https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/163xL_FLQLsWD8Yv9GfkR... and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtDzyHnedoE The UX research in https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1ZE9BNAnIPDKxgSyQU5su... and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8-Jto8FTmA Sorry for the general answer, I can't be more specific since I don't know what flow you mean.
- As mentioned in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14354087 some people like getting their own notifications, but maybe we should make it configurable.
- GitLab.com is slow compared to GitHub.com, we're working on this in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/infrastructure/issues/947 The GNOME team is looking to self host so they don't have this problem.
- What is the nr. 1 thing you would improve in the review UX? I'm excited about https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/1984
- I think mass updates to issues are getting some love in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/28340
Ironically I wish this feature existed on Github (does it???). To be more specific, I wish I could get emailed when I make comments on PRs. As crazy as it sounds, it is much easier for me to track whether the comments have been addressed in a list of emails instead of trying to dig through Github's comment interface after I've made many different comments.
Of course this wouldn't be necessary if that compact list just existed in Github already...
- Go to https://github.com/settings/notifications
- Check "Email" under Watching
- Then check "Include your own updates" in the section below
Not at all.
Some gripes:
- Bad UX, just one example: many things that require one-click + type in competetitors products require more than one click (2-3). Another: Hard to see in the issue tracker which issues were updated.
- Bad notifications: It seriously creates notifications for actions done by oneself. That makes absolutely no sense at all whatsoever.
- Somewhat sluggish performance .... compared to Github!
- Poor review UX
- Annoyingly bad issue listings (e.g. select some issues and change something about them)
... and I've literally only used it in one rather small project. Incidentally no one of the regular users I know are satisfied or ok with Gitlab.
