That's why the general trend is *away* from email.
The Foreman community recently switched away from mailing lists
in this way,
and
https://theforeman.org/2018/07/discourse-6-months-on-impact-assesment.html
is really interesting and helpful read on the topic for those who
might have
some ... trepidation.
I'm not sayin' we are ready to shut this list down, but it's
honestly worth
considering if a different approach will be more effective.
Before the daggers come out.... please take some time to checkout Fedora Discourse https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/ and read the Foreman community link above.
As I had previously mentioned, Discourse allows for RSS feeds and email notifications. It also has a mailing list mode.
RSS is going away. And part of that, Mozilla is removing built-in RSS support in Firefox 64.
Well, for the moment, Discourse supports it (as well as Fedora updates) - and FWIW I've never used RSS Support in Fx. I use Tiny Tiny RSS and Inoreader and have yet to have a problem adding a feed from a site. There are also many many other clients available - too many to list here.
If it goes away however, such is life - and I'll use the next best thing.
And anyway.. Firefox is dropping built-in support for RSS, but you'll be able to use RSS in Firefox through web extensions (or just use another browser or an external application).

Let me add a personal consideration on this regard. I'm deleting 90% of emails coming in this mailing list, but I have to be subscribed and filter tens of threads every day just to get the 10% I'm interested in. If you sum it day by day, it's a lot of waste.
In Discourse I'd be able to receive emails posted in the section I'm interested in. Or I may want to receive no email at all, just a notification on the website. My email client wouldn't be loaded of stuff I don't need. My mind would be happier too :-)
