I use Discourse notifications for the Releases category to let me know when new rclone versions come out. Every time some rando replies to a release thread like this one
... the forum sends me an email. Can you please lock all threads in the release forum so only admins/mods can post there?
After putting in a bit of research the "watching first post" notification setting fixes my problem. I don't recall seeing that option before, maybe it's new. I love Discourse!
Might want to lock threads anyway if you don't want people posting in there, though.
My apologies if I have been unknowingly causing annoyance.
I do feel there is some value to leaving responses open (for a while) as it can be nice to point out especially interesting new features and the like to other users.
I think there is some positive benefit to community morale too.
But this is an administrative choice of course, and I'm not an administrator - so that's just, like... my opinion man 
If that solved your problem I'd like to leave the release notifications unlocked. Often I get useful feedback on which features people appreciate and sometimes pick up bug reports!
Yes of course, your call. Thanks for making rclone!
