The list is a 'push' model interaction. SO and other forums are 'pull' - I need to visit them and ask for questions. I'm subscribed to 50+ forums, and 20+ mailing lists. It would take hours just to visit all forums. Browsing the messages from the mailing lists takes minutes. Also, most of the time SO pisses me off with "search the archives" or "message deleted" :( . > If everyone who thinks SO > is better uses it... then eventually, it’ll become the place to go. For the time being I consider the list very high quality, friendly, and to the point. I'll stay. -- Johan _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
