Well that is not really an issue, is it? It's doing what it is told to do: notify about new stars in this case. The solution to this problem would probably be to disable notifications for new stars in the webhook settings of your repo.

Can’t noticications for a star be sent only once for a user?

mpldr commented 5 years ago

I guess it only uses what the webhook provides. Keeping an entire database of who gave a star to what would probably be a bit expensive due to the model of Heroku.

Howabout a running buffer. Say purge records more than 24 hours old Being able to generate one notification per 24 hours isnt nearly as abusable.

If you are getting a lot of stars you can disable the payload with this. image
