I'm not a big fan of mailing lists either, for the reasons you describe What I do dislike though is, as Slack is invite only (the software is designed for "Teams" in workplaces, not public forums) you have to explicitly request access from the admins and this is often via the mailing lists.

The invite-only nature of slack is probably why I never spend any serious amount of time in any slack, though some other factors may play a role too considering I quite enjoy Discord (OSS discords never seem to replace any discussion board, only supplement it, plus discord has unlimited search)
