I got my https://github.com/notifications dialed in this year and it's be really useful. For watching activity on internal repos I work on, plus a good number of public repos that I keep an eye on to various degrees, I find that it's a very well-designed tool for triage.

Doesn't the GitHub dashboard (the page you see when you login) show you that? Not sure if it covers all your use cases but it's been improving lately.

When I go there for my work, for example, I see notifications _for every repo I've ever interacted with_. I would prefer it be a bit smarter, like focus in on most important repos / notifications.
I want kind of like a priority inbox of important stuff, and then a secondary inbox of stuff to ignore...

try going to github.com/watching
there should be a list of all the repos you watch
unwatch any repo you don't want to be notified of

If you talking about a professional setup, then add the slack-github app to subscribe to these repositories. You will get notifications in private slack dm.
I don't want email notifications spamming Github. I want a smarter feed of things I should care about and need to keep up with to do my work. PRs I probably need to review, Issues related to what I work on, etc... I haven't found a great way to do this, maybe others have ideas?
