When we requested for feedback, them gen-z cried out loud for interactions to happen on some social media app through groups or channels, and since they are the target audience and the majority, we settled for discord and telegram which they actively engage on :-).

We still maintain the mailing list though and most announcement are done via it but things are changing hey....

This is the real problem - there are many NOG discussions shifting on to mobile messaging apps (Signal and Telegram, specifically) in the developing markets, even when mailing lists exist.

Reasons abound as to why this is happening. The bottom line is that this is happening, and appears to be the preference.

There's a GUI for you...
