Nah, I quite like getting my GE update alerts in my safe space, Lemmy. I don't have the time to remember to go check github periodically. I do notice, and read, the posts here and decide if its worth updating my deck/desktop right then and there while I am thinking about it.

Plus the whole point to good development is small, short release cycles and incremental updates. All we are seeing is the byproduct of a good developer and workflow.
I am coming at things from a different angle. Both being on linux, and having purposely added steam to start automatically.
Productivity for me, is having my workspace in the same state I left it -- so I can pick up where I left off. That said, I also work in IT and put system and software updates at an equally high priority.
Having browser, terminal, steam (so it can be running shader cache or updates, if nothing else) are all restored to prior state then allows me to enable various unattended upgrades and even restarts during off hours.
And to compliment that, one of the best performances of the track, that I have ever witnessed. To be in that crowd, and attend one of these concerts, is now on my bucket list.

Mine is so loud (she's 20ish lbs) that I am pretty sure she disturbs the neighbour beside me.
If she is that loud above me when I am downstairs, I can only imagine how it must sound to them when she gallops up and down the stairs. Very thin walls there.
Jessica rightfully owns top place on the list.
