Are there any linear-formatted communication methods that you find more 
comfortable? Or is the entire idea not workable for you?

Paul Moore also raised the issue you're mentioning around "figuring out what I 
have and have not read". Discourse is supposed to help with this with a 
timeline view and a "Back" button. So far the "Back" button behavior is to say 
the least surprising to us, if not just buggy. Some discussion here:

I agree we need to address this for Discourse to be a proper upgrade over 
mailing lists.
