Describe the problem
Notification emails can be very long and unuseful, because every updated or new strings in every project followed are listed, one after the other... I don't see any situation in which someone would like to read them all and cherry-pick between them right there in the notifications email.
It does not make for a very readable summary and does not give a good insight as to which project needs lots of translators on board right now, which one just updated a few strings and needs a quick fix etc... It's useful to keep you vaguely updated, but does not help you understand what's actually going at a quick glance.
Describe the solution you would like
When project strings are updated or added, i'd like summary emails to not show me every updated string.
Instead, i'd like them to only tell me how many of them have been updated, how many have been added, how many are waiting for translation etc... and for each line stating a change, possibly being able to click on it so it leads me directly to the strings in question, so i can get to work immediately on those strings i'm interested in.
Describe alternatives you have considered
The exact number of strings may be unimportant to some. A simple sentence saying "one or several strings have been modified" could be enough.

Additional context
I translate open-source projects on my spare time and have set up to receive notifications in my mailbox about projects i've contributed to that would need translations updates, in case new strings are added or some or updated.
As a consequence, there is a good number of projects i'm following. So, as to not flood my mailbox with messages, i've set my Weblate notifications to send me a single mail each week about New Components, Announcements, and Strings Waiting for Translation. While having all of them tucked in in a single email is neat and commendable, the lenght of this email defeats its information purpose by flooding me with too much of it.
