<br>
I'm also in favor to stay on mailing lists. After 7+ years of experience<br>
with QGIS and other software I find working with email great because:<br>
<br>
* I have all the work to do (= mail to read) in one place<br>
* don't loose threads: I just leave the emails as "to read" and I can be<br>
updated even after days when I couldn't be active because of reasons<br>
* archiving. The last week it too me 2 minutes to find a solution (that<br>
I knew was posted on the QGIS mailing list) of 2015<br>
* emails are not chat. It could not be our case, but when someone ask or<br>
posts something on slack like channels (s)he expects to have an<br>
immediate answer while with emails you have to be more patience<br>
<br>
Anyway.. If moving to slack like channel we have to choose some open<br>
source alternative. Zero experience here, but what about<br>
