Improve documentation for notify methods
lnotify.py and all of the other local notification scripts for linux in the repo have issues (see https://github.com/weechat/scripts/issues/433), so recommend the trigger in the wiki instead, which seems to work great.

### How can I get system wide notifications for messages?
-Install [one of the notify
-scripts](https://weechat.org/scripts/stable/tag/notify/). Note that not all
-scripts work with wee-slack. For local notifications,
-[lnotify.py](https://weechat.org/scripts/source/lnotify.py.html/) is known to
-work for Linux, and
-[notification_center.py](https://weechat.org/scripts/source/notification_center.py.html/)
-for macOS.
+#### Local notifications on Linux
+
+Use [this trigger](https://github.com/weechat/weechat/wiki/Triggers#show-a-libnotify-desktop-notification-via-notify-send).
+You need the `notify-send` command, or alternatively replace it with another
+command in the trigger.
+
+#### Local notifications on macOS
+
+Use [the notification_center.py script](https://weechat.org/scripts/source/notification_center.py.html/). You can install it with `/script install notification_center.py`.
+
+#### Remote notifications
+
+There are many scripts in the [scripts repo](https://weechat.org/scripts/tag/notify/)
+for various use cases. Note that not all may work with wee-slack, so you will
+have to test them.
