GH Tasks v0.5.0
New
- Inbox filters are now multi-select checkboxes. The old single-choice Category dropdown became a checkbox popover — the same pattern the Projects tab uses for Status. Pick any combination of categories (they OR together) and see a live count next to each. Empty selection means "All."
- A dedicated "Unread only" toggle. Read-state is now its own switch beside the Category picker, independent of which categories you've chosen — so you can, say, show unread + Mentioned + Assigned in one view. Both the category selection and the unread toggle persist across relaunches.
- You can finally filter subscriptions. A new Subscribed & other category surfaces the reasons that make up most of a busy inbox —
subscribed, CI activity, releases, state changes — which previously had no checkbox and only ever showed under "All." Check it to isolate them, or check the other four categories to hide the subscription noise entirely.
Notes
- Because filters persist, the Inbox reopens with whatever category/unread selection you last used. Clear it from the popover's Clear button (or untick everything) to return to "All." While any filter is active, infinite scroll pauses — filters operate on already-loaded items, so it won't silently page in items you can't see the effect of.
