a notification pm to everyone for updates, maybe email too

Consise Idea: For each update each user gets a notification pm
<Body>:
Suggestion Idea: For all of those monthly (or so) updates and announcements that Lack puts on the first page, what if we all receive widely-distributed pm's, either telling about us directly what the new update is, or atleast giving a link to the thread about it.
Specifics: Maybe it could be a box that you check in your profile, whether or not you want to receive pm's about updates. Maybe it could also be sent as an email, maybe if you don't want to recieve anonymous pm's as emails but you do want update-pm's as emails, there could be a separate box for that? It sounds complicated, I don't care so much about the email part but I think it would be nice to atleast get a pm.
Why it is needed: in other sites I visit, such as Deviant Art (and I know this isn't Deviant Art
) we get to choose whether or not we want to receive notification letters in our mailbox everytime a new article is posted. I think this might be useful in CC because when lack puts a new update or announcement, its all in the far-right of the homepage, you could go days without noticing 
I know it won't kill you, because eventually we all notice, but maybe for those that like to know upfront what just happened. thanks
