But, please, don't tell _me_ off-list that you volunteer. I want no
say in who would become a new moderator - I'm already doing the job as
I believe it's _best_ done. "Hands off" as much as possible.

So if the community disagrees, they need to work out among themselves
"the rules" for what should be suppressed, and pick moderators they
believe will enforce those rules.

I'm old, and cut my online discussion teeth via Usenet. It was total
chaos, and I came to appreciate that deeply. Nobody was silenced by a
central authority, but then again nobody could insist on being heard
either. News readers quickly grew rather sophisticated notions of
"killfiles", which allowed a user to quickly render posters they found
useless, and/or toxic threads, and/or ... (anything that could be
identified by a web of user-supplied regular expressions) completely
invisible to them.

The unsolvable problem I see with trying to ask a moderator to do that
for everyone at once is that, to stop complaints about over-permissive
moderation, the moderator would have to emulate the union of all list
members' killfiles (had they ability to make their own), not their
intersection. And then essentially no messages would be approved. You
think I'm joking, but, e.g., back in the day I knew someone who
killefiled every poster who had a surname that "sounded Armenian". And
you better believe that _some_ people today would insist that _this_
message be suppressed because "killfile" evokes violence.

Me, I'd consider suppressing it only because I generally find very
little value in meta-posts, which this post _about_ python-dev
moderation is ;-)

Both the email and newsreader parts of Thunderbird have an option called
Ignore Thread.  Do your readers have such?



I consume my email from a variety of disparate devices, including a Debian
laptop, a Windows desktop, a Chromebook, an Android phone, and various
university-managed computer labs. As such, and as I rely heavily on Gmail's
filtering and labeling system to manage my email, I rely solely on Google's
standard web interface and Android app for Gmail for the sake of a
consistent experience across devices. I don't know if Google offers such an
option. It takes me about three seconds to click a thread, see the arguing,
and click Archive, but I'm getting tired of doing that repeatedly.


https://gsuitetips.com/tips/gmail/how-to-mute-and-find-email-conversations/


To mute an email thread, simply:
- Within Gmail:
- Open the email conversation you want to mute
- Click more and in the drop down menu select mute
[...]

When a conversation is muted, any new message will bypass your inbox so
that the conversation stays archived. Muted conversations will reappear in
your inbox if a new message in the conversation is addressed to you and no
one else, or if you're added to the "To" or "Cc" line in a new message.


Does that fix your problem?

Ok, let me announce that I don't consider unsubscribing because someone
made a mess of themselves in public. ;-)

Overall, "me too!" pile-ons _are_ "the [bulk of the] mess" to most
list subscribers.

It will die out on its own in time. Dr. Brett should know by now that
he'll never get the "last word" with Dr. Marco, And everyone should
know by now that Dr. Marco won't let anyone else get the last word
either ;-)

So stop feeding it. That's the practical thing to do.

Like almost everything else in CPython-land, list moderation is a
volunteer thing.  I've been the most active (by far) list moderator
here essentially forever, but I see my only _legitimate_ job as
stopping spam. I might step in to block blatantly illegal posts too,
but that hasn't yet come up.

If you want more active moderation, volunteer for the job. I'd happily
give it up, and acknowledge that my laissez-faire moderation approach
is out of style.

Else suit yourself: unsubscribe if you like, and come back whenever
you like. It's all self-serve, and you're welcome here whenever "here"
is welcome to you.

As a matter of courtesy, though, it's less disruptive to the list
membership if you just unsubscribe rather than announce to the 3,585
list members that you're considering unsubscribing ;-)

Please.

I am mostly a lurker, but I am also considering unsubscribing if someone
doesn't step in and stop the mess going on between Brett and Marco. It's
becoming annoying to see adults, with doctorates even, who don't know how
to behave in public. I've seen five-year-olds that behave better than what
I've seen on this list recently.
