I have to disagree from personal experience. There has only once in my life been a mailing list that it was useful to have been subscribed to, it was by a friend group. Every other mailing list that I was ever part of was a waste of time.
How does that contradict the usefulness of mailing lists in context of software development? It's not a chat for anything but specifically discussing contributions, thus not any worse than discussion boards below PRs.
maybe it doesn't.
