Based on the MLs description on [2], devuan-discuss is the primary ML for

DNG is the primary ML for such things.

devuan-discuss is not useful and causing troubles: newcomers don't get help;
community is splits into 2 groups; ML activity gives a bad perception about
Devuan project activity.

Sorry, but I don't get your point. The request you are talking about
was posted to devuan-discuss after 21:00 (CEST) on Saturday 5th
November. It is now Sunday 6th November, 14:16 CEST, so 17 long
(weekend) hours have passed since that email appeared on
devuan-discuss. Believe it or not, people might actually have
something better (or simply different) to do during the week-end than
waiting in front of their email client to address problems found by
other users.

That was an example. The same issue posted here received an answer after less than 20 minutes, with at least a temporary solution within, while neither a solution nor a feedback was given on devuan-discuss yet.

DNG ML is a better place than devuan-discuss to get help, get feedback and gauge Devuan project activity. The website does tell another story. If people gauge Devuan project activity and community based on their interaction with devuan-discuss, they will probably be disappointed. I think it is harmful when it comes to attract more people inside the community. That is my point.
