🗒️ Summary of this message: A member of the lightning community expressed concern over the lack of public communication due to off-topic emails and a slow moderator. They questioned if there is a better place for discussions.
📝 Original message:
Is there a better place to have public communication? Unfortunately since one off topic email was sent here, it's been a ghost town. It appears that there's many emails being held and only one moderator that checks them once a week.
Would hate to see this list die but wondering if there's a better place for discussions?
