Well, we could maintain the mailing list and use it as an exercise for
newcomers :-D I agree that nowadays mailing lists are a communication
system used by old school bearded developers :-D But in your journey
you will always encounter one (one mailing list, mmh maybe also a
bearded developer). So it could be like a playground for people who
have never seen one. (But for me, if there is a consensus, we can stop
using this mailing list altogether).

My humble two cents: I am an old bearded non-developer; I am aware of many non-bearded users of mailing lists.

my main point is however: having been on this list for +/- 2 weeks, I enjoy it as a way to getting a sense of people in the community. But, of course, that can also happen via introductions on discourse.

Of course, in terms of use logics, it is quite hidden (it took me years to stumble upon this welcome/intro space). I have no idea, whether ask/discussion platforms could be employed to automatically invite new users there to introduce themselves. I note that discourse seems to recognise new users as such.
