Hi, have you already signed up? A lot of users tested Discourse. I'm one of them. Note, you can only send a request, if you reach "Level 1". It's not absurd to fight gamification. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamification#Criticism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamification I'm absolutely not a mentally immobile dino. I way more often fight for changes. In this case there are several reasons to fight against this step into the wrong direction. One reason is, that it does split the community to gains absolutely nothing. Btw. I'm using a major distro, that is a real rolling release, following upstream as close as possible. It's approach isn't user-friendliness, it does follow the user-centric approach. IOW I'm used to software changes and I make my homework on my own. Arch Linux migrated from Mailman 2, to Mailman 3, see https://lists.archlinux.org/mailman3/lists/arch-general.lists.archlinux.org/ --> "Postorius Documentation" [ https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/postorius/en/latest/ ] Requirements Postorius requires Python 3.7+. The minimum Django version is 3.2. Postorius needs a running version of GNU Mailman version 3.3.5." "https://docs.mailman3.org/projects/hyperkitty/en/latest/ Why HyperKitty? Mailman is in need for replacement of its default Pipermail archiver. It is over 10 years old, users’ expectations have changed and their requirements are more sophisticated than the current archiver can deliver on. Mailman3 is the currently under active development and it offers a pluggable architecture where multiple archivers can be plugged to the core without too much pain. Some of the drawbacks of Pipermail : It does not support stable URLs. It has scalability issues (it was not suitable for organizations working with hundred of thousand of messages per day, e.g, Launchpad) The web interface is dated and does not output standards-compliant HTML nor does it take advantage of new technologies such as AJAX. The HyperKitty archiver addresses most of the drawbacks of Pipermail." That the GNOME foundation spread untruth related to Mailman is already a reason to fight back!
