Why? It's vastly more useful to Discord, Slack, etc and highly amenable to automation in ways they are not -- you can even write your own client!
- insanitybit 3y agoThere's one feature of Discord and Slack that I like - no one can fucking talk to me unless I invite them. I'm so sick of communication systems where random people can contact me. Phones are worse, but email is quite bad. I've just created a new email because the one I've been using for the last 15 years is simply impossible to manage, with the constant, unsolicited spam.
- ajsnigrutin 3y agoSpam filters are great... even if you have none. "sorry, spam filter ate your mail" is an excuse noone really questions.
- gumby 3y agoIt's pretty trivial to set up a list of people allowed into your inbox. Maybe not with one of those consumer products like aol or gmail, but I mean seriously...!
- TylerE 3y agoPeople tend to underestimate the value of a shared source of truth. Email doesn’t have that. You have no way of knowing if your message was even accepted by the remote MTA
