I find the presentation of threaded conversations in linear format to be confusing, figuring out what I have and have not read to be difficult, and the overall frustration to not be worth it.
Are there any linear-formatted communication methods that you find more comfortable? Or is the entire idea not workable for you?
Paul Moore also raised the issue you're mentioning around "figuring out what I have and have not read". Discourse is supposed to help with this with a timeline view and a "Back" button. So far the "Back" button behavior is to say the least surprising to us, if not just buggy. Some discussion here: https://discuss.python.org/t/is-this-really-better-than-a-mailing-list/57/19?u=ambv <https://discuss.python.org/t/is-this-really-better-than-a-mailing-list/57/19?u=ambv>
I agree we need to address this for Discourse to be a proper upgrade over mailing lists.
