GitHub: deactivate notifications for one repository

Sorry, this is not really a development question but I don't know where to ask (SuperUser?)

I'm using my GitHub account for private and professional repositories and I'm getting about 40 email notifications a day for one repository I'm not interested in.

I tried to deactivate notifications for this repository but only found a way to deactivate notifications for new repositories.

Apart from setting up an email filter - what am I missing here?

As of February 2024, you can

  1. go to https://github.com/watching

  2. for each repository that you want to unsubscribe to, click on Unwatch, and then select "Ignore" from the popup menu: enter image description here

  3. (optionally) go to your https://github.com/notifications and mark all of the existing notifications as read

Based on Github's site

You can configure notifications for a repository on the repository page, or on your watching page.

and

You can customize notifications for a repository, for example, you can choose to only be notified when updates to one or more types of events (issues, pull request, releases, discussions) happen within a repository, or ignore all notifications for a repository. For more information, see "Viewing your subscriptions."

And from what I have seen: This is where you find it Enter the repo, Settings, notifications, and you have the 'Active' checkbox.
