This is awesome. Thanks for putting some thought into this. The human usage factors of mailing list software or any type of community software are a big challenge.
Is there any way for a Discourse Admin to create Discourse accounts for people with just their email address?
One common use of a mailing list is to get updates about a physical group such as a soccer club or a ballet club. For example, we have a party on Thursday, let us know what type of food you’re bringing. The most common way to get the emails is that everyone sends their email to one person and then the list admin manually adds all the emails in. I was looking for this feature in discourse, but could not find it. Do you know if it exists?
I like your comments because they contain actionable ideas to solve human behavior challenges.
