Hi Antoine, I have an alternative to GMane. I'm using a different email address for anything related to Python (and OSS projects in general): python-dev list, bug tracker, buildbots, GitHub notifications, etc. Some days, I don't read this email account at all, but I can still read my personal and profesional emails, without seeing "notifications" on the Python topics that I'm following (and not be tempted to reply!).
For me, this level of granularity works pretty well ;-) Victor On Thu, Aug 26, 2021 at 11:10 AM Antoine Pitrou <anto...@python.org> wrote: > > On Wed, 25 Aug 2021 12:22:29 -0700 > Brett Cannon <br...@python.org> wrote: > > I just wanted to apologize for any angst or noise my replies to Marco > > caused folks.
