On the one side, yes doing @mention somone helps, so the person knows, that
they should answer.That's why I propose, that we also add groups/function
mentions like @ft, @sysadmin, @help desk... Than people outside the team can
make sure, the other teams know about it and the teams itself can make sure,
that there are shifts and forward issues to the correct person in their teams.
This should reduce the informal hierarchies and give the teams to define their
own shifts etc.

ACK this is also not a good way to rely on a person subscribed to everything.
But it is still possible to subscribe to everything in GitLab.

first, get your token:
go to https://invent.kde.org/profile/personal_access_tokens
scroll down until you find the Feed token and copy that

than you can use this feel url:
https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/dashboard/projects.atom?feed_token=<token>

We need also a way to not lost the drive-by contributors, maybe some kind of
script that checks if on an issue is not regular contributor mentioned/
involved?
