(meta) Broken link to gmane.org archive of python-ideas
Heya all, I've joined this list and wanted to read the archives to get a flavour of the community here. I noticed that the link with text: gmane.org archive of python-ideas on the page: https://www.python.org/community/lists/ gives a HTML page with the only text being: Page Not Found I couldn't easily work out what the correct link should be, but part of the solution seems to be httpS:// Perhaps someone here knows how to wrangle gmane.org? -- Tom Hale

Discourse, a modern web forum software, does have decent searchability and archives baked in. Discord, a web chat service, does not. Are you sure you're not somehow mixing the two up? I've lately seen people oppose Discourse as they think it is Discord, which is an understandable mixup in the midst of a flurry of new rapidly changing technologies and fora after a few decades of stability in how to communicate to each other over the internet (email, irc, usenet). -- Joni Orponen
