There's a community that I'd like to be more involved with that uses Discourse, but I (personally) find Discourse to be simply too much overhead, so I'm not active in that community.
If I *had* to use Discourse (for a paycheck job), I would / could. But not by choice.
Disclaimer - I'm an old fart and I've been doing email for many decades, and it's my favorite / primary form of electronic communication. Mailing lists are natural and easy for me to participate in virtual communities.
If you're going to use email lists, Groups.io is the way to go. It's not open source, and you can't self-host it. It's a paid service... but it's a very good, very stable / reliable, very capable service.
If I had to start a mailing list now (and I am considering doing so as a companion for my newsletter), I'd pony up the fee to use the paid version.
Thanks for considering Groups.io - I think it would work well for ARDC.
