Watching the repo
If you start watching this repo - you will receive many notifications about all trends in all languages. The recommended way is to selectively subscribe on issues you are interested in.
Is it better than RSS / newsletter / etc?
It's a matter of taste. Personally I found it convenient by the following reasons:
- I'm dealing with GitHub notifications anyway and trends are seamlessly integrated in my daily workflow
- I can quickly overview trends without registering somewhere and watching ads
- I can view non-english entries that are automatically translated
