I like the mailing list. With emails, even on different computers, you
don’t have to check anything else. They just appear after being sent. Also,
threads can still be easily replied to on emails. People also know a way to
contact people privately on email by just emailing them. I’m so not use
discourse, but is there also a way to do this there?
