Well, not because it's hosted on a web page, but a more structured system *does* address a lot of these problems. A lot of what you're referring to as "netiquette" is really about putting the onus on each individual user to do stuff that a more sophisticated system could handle for them, and a system like discourse *does* handle those. You can't top-post on discourse. Renaming topics works in a much saner way. You can deal with 'cross-posting' in a much saner and more flexible way. Quoting is always a problem everywhere, but that's only *one* thing, at least. :D -- Adam Williamson (he/him/his) Fedora QA Fedora Chat: @adamwill:fedora.im | Mastodon: @ad...@fosstodon.org https://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org 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/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
