From vincenzopalazzodev at gmail.com Mon Dec 4 20:53:38 2023 From: vincenzopalazzodev at gmail.com (Vincenzo Palazzo) Date: Mon, 4 Dec 2023 21:53:38 +0100 Subject: [Lightning-dev] Mailing List Future In-Reply-To: <5458e0a9-ddd5-4ea1-8ebb-6151a3b20022@mattcorallo.com> References: <5458e0a9-ddd5-4ea1-8ebb-6151a3b20022@mattcorallo.com> Message-ID: A problem that I see with http://delvingbitcoin.org/ is what happens 10 years from now? I am more in favour of keeping the ML (and I can host it because I have a couple of projects that need an ML too) because 10 years from now we are sure that the mail is still alive. In addition, I was going to try https://lists.sr.ht as a list, maybe we can use it as a backup list? like an archive-ln-list or something? However, I am not a blocker for people who want to use http://delvingbitcoin.org/ it is accessible enough also for screen readers Vincent.
