How do you handle threading? I follow each (sub)thread through to it's end, as it keeps a logical flow, but Discourse has everything linear which means that as I read it the conversation keeps jumping around, making it hard to follow.
I accepted that it's linear. I don't think I *can* do much more than accept it and move on: if python-dev was used by everyone, rather than almost exclusively by people who prefer e-mail (and presumably use threading mail clients), we'd get mangled threading anyway from all the non-threaded clients. I mean, I could grumble about threading and bottom-posting and plain-text messages and IRC all day, but realistically, I'm not likely to convince anyone who's not into those things already.
