Introducing: Buddy notifications

Warning
The ticker notifications in Buddy has been deprecated and is no longer available. At the moment, only desktop notifications are enabled.

Buddy has a special feature that lets you track only what's important for you: following items. Whenever something happens in the item that you follow (repository or pipeline), a message will appear in the ticker menu:

Introducing: Desktop notifications

We're happy to announce that release v1.4.9 brings desktop notifications, which further expand the functionality. All you need to do is accept the request from your browser on first login to your account. From then on, Buddy will keep you updated with messages even if you're not logged in at the site. Magic!
