I am using gmane to lurk there and I am posting directly from NTTP client,
so I can understand the value of not receiving discord servers via email ;-)
Life is simply different since gmane.org.
Nabble is good, and they are ranking high at google. I think we could add

The advantage of being easily searchable is that SNR tends to get better
once all past problems can be googled out.
