We were told that a forum could provide everything a list provided, and you could even interact with it via email, so clearly it was a Good Thing. It shortly became clear that the user experience of interacting with Discourse via email was significantly worse than a traditional mailing list, so a bunch of us set up a new list (evolution-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) where we continue on our merry way. The Discourse instance still exists (the two mechanisms are entirely separate with no cross-posting between them), but traffic on the mailing list is noticeably greater than on the forum, which I think says something. poc -- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
