Hey all,
I have been following discussions on Discourse (discuss.python.org) these
last times.
I think that it definitely lacks some of the joys of the mailing list:
1/ Categories
The discussion has fixed categories. No channel for fun posts, project
releases or musings.
2/ Ui
Good luck getting to the bottom of big threads. Hello JS!
PS. You can but it's not intuitive.

Also, as a conversation develops, irrelevant posts which don't add
utility can be deleted making review easier.
Issues/complaints raised about any communication medium are rarely
solved by moving to some other. They typically relate to the way humans
use the facility. The gossip-side of social media is an evident race for
the bottom. Many (semi-)professional channels are infected by peoples'
assumptions of similarity. Also, do I need to discuss the way so many
people ask for help but give minimum assistance to their hoped-for
respondents? https://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html ...
