[swift-evolution] [Discussion] mailing list alternative

[Joshua Alvarado]

Mobile support would be a must have. I love that Disclosure has good mobile support. 

Also Slack has added threads and would be a very helpful feature in the way proposals are discussed here. 

Alvarado, Joshua

I wouldn't even know how to find if it has been discussed before because it would be too hard to go back through the history.

I may be speaking for myself when saying email may intimidate newcomers from expressing their opinions and thoughts. It is hard to know what has already been discussed and who is even in the active conversation. Keeping track of history is a pain as well. Searching through many emails to find who said what and when is not effective in email clients. Also, code formatting in emails is not effective. Let's discuss and actually make an action to move away from email if the community so agrees. Of course, recommendations are Slack, Hipchat (-1), and Gitter.
