Description
Use case:
- I *really* want to be notified ASAP about new stuff on given website. So I set the low interval of 5 mins
- But I don't like the idea of wasting resources (both from my side and site owner) - so I'd like to skip the checks on some specific hours where I sleep
Using cron-like rules I could save some resources.
Please consider this feature request, thanks!
