It's bizarre to me that there's no real standard push-style solution to this problem yet. RSS is great, though I haven't considered using it until now. It'd be a bit of an outlier for me to do that just for flake8.
I fail to see how mail is somehow more "push-style" than RSS/Atom is, at least from an user's perspective. Running a mail client and running an RSS client seems pretty much the same thing. I'd consider RSS pretty much the standard solution for this. I use it for dozens of blogs I read, web comics (XKCD and such), various social networks (e.g. Reddit), package releases for different ecosystems, etc. etc. Hell, even Google Search alerts and other high-profile websites. Many websites provide such feeds, and for those which don't, projects like https://github.com/RSS-Bridge/rss-bridge or services like https://fetchrss.com/ exist which parse the websites and turn them into a feed.
