This made me curious. Does anyone happen to know if the
equivalent of this E-mailed announcement (that must've
been broadcasted to the various Fedora forums, such as
ask.fedoraproject.org) – I'm genuinely curious if the
web-based versions of this announcement informs the reader
about the fedora-users mailing list for additional help,
assistance, and community support?
Well, let's see. I see this announcement on
ask.fedoraproject.org. It's a link to
https://fedoramagazine.org/announcing-fedora-linux-42/ –
splendid. Let's hop over there…
Let’s talk over at Fedora Discussion.
which is a circular link back to ask.fedoraproject.org
So, it looks like the answer to the question I asked is "no".
aside from the subject, a bit.
Posting here about web-browser based communication channels
probably defeats the purpose.
But also most importantly, practically....most know, what
the advantages of mailing lists in an email clients such as
Thunderbird are:
1) much cleaner view
2) no noise in form of icons, thumbnails other flashing
graphics, ads/commercials
3) everything, not just one community, in one place -> a)
4) off-line, yes... for some, an in-imaginable
feat/situation, when happens, all the content already
received is still available
now... we have a generation to which practical & logical
mind is a foreign concept, whose attention span is only a
few minutes,
thus... posting on web forums about mailing list probably
defeats the purpose even more so..
and now.. the only important question - in my mind - is: do
we have an actual split inside, within our (any) community
and is the root (& only) cause is simply a preference
(ignorance ?) toward one tool/solution
This question should be seriously investigated by
stake/share-holders of Fedora and.. if the answer is YES,
then...
the only solution - in my mind - must be
practical-programmatic one...
to sync messaging content between the two (or more),
pulling/pushing those two between each other so there is no
difference, the messaging-content is the same everywhere.
