Re: [orca-list] Announcement: this mailing list will be retired by the end of Oct 2022

groups.io is much more suited than google groups.

Hello,

Given the number of messages and interest in such a short time, I've set up the
orca-list Google group.

To subscribe, send a blank email to orca-list+subscribe googlegroups com
<mailto:orca-list%2Bsubscribe googlegroups com> or
visit https://groups.google.com/g/orca-list <https://groups.google.com/g/orca-list>

If it turns out that there is no reason for this group to exist, it can always
be closed.

Thanks.

    To be fair, I've seen on comments elsewhere that just because Python2 is
    deprecated, doesn't mean people will abandon it.


    I can cite numerous examples, and at least or me, I find Orca's keys
    clash with Discourse's, plus I much prefer the convenience of an email
    list to quickly check, vs having to log into a forum.

    Has Discourse improved its email list options, since the last I heard,
    you got every email in a big orum, then a digest, plus topics you
    started. Has this changed at all?
