After a user on the users list asked about a forum, I pointed them to our hyperkitty instance [lists.ovirt.org], which people did not know about. Maybe that was a bad idea, because a few who started looking at it commented that it was broken. This is not a good community experience. [Thank you, Marc, for opening https://gitlab.com/mailman/hyperkitty/issues/206  - but no reply for 2 months on a *major* bug like that?]

While investigating the threading issue today, I found a new issue (attached screenshot).

Also, one person sent the same message to the list 7 times today because he never saw his message show up in the list / UI.

Perhaps hyperkitty is not well-tested nor really used by others, in which case we should not use it. There are many alternative forums, including popular (although admittedly walled off) ones like reddit [https://www.reddit.com/r/ovirt]

Please share your thoughts.

Best wishes,

Greg
