Just discovered that it is possible to browse and mail lists online with ease with help of .

Lightweight and keyboard driven navigation in mind of the developers of this great tool.

Possible to access from actions too. Charming.

@csantosb have you seen the patchworks instance that @cbaines runs for #guix - very useful way to grab patches - plus somehow there's a git branch for each issue.

I actually read the #guix-help and #guix-devel mailing lists using #nntp (in #mutt) using yhetril. I know that's a bit mad!

@futurile @cbaines@octodon.social
I found the instance by chance some time ago, for some reason, I understood it was something setup by the project itself.

Yeah, it was a time when I was using and too ... then, I found a rabbit hole on my way. Sometimes I wonder if there is an equivalent with .

@csantosb I really want to understand this technology better. Maildirs mailing lists as git repos with easy temporary extension to notmuch for search seem like a no brainer to me versus direct subscription in most cases. Would be even better with Arun's tissue system to pair the mailing lists with curated analyses with references and commentary for common issues. I badly want to skip the Web browser dependency step if I can. Those things take way too long to compile for my liking.
