My pet peeve is these $PROCESS notifications that go to slack channels. I worked at a company that had an #engineering_humans slack channel because we got chased out of #engineering by bots.

I'm fine if they go to THEIR OWN slack channel. Then I can mute that channel.

Of course, it's a different problem if those notifications have a mix of actionable and non-actionable messages (e.g. both success and error messages). Then it's a signal/noise problem.
