It is difficult to track/watch/ignore topics and threads from different lists. Most mailing list user interfaces are awkward to use. Mailing list archives create duplicate search hits when googling. Finally mailing lists tend to fragment the community.

Somehow usenet – which does not suffer from any of these points – grew out of fashion.

Just subscribe subetha to all the lists you want and you get a platform for playing with this idea.
