Heya, I'm using the Gmail web interface and I think I haven't really
encountered major problems so far. Open the [...] below and you can split
and type underneath quoted parts. That said, mailing lists are ancient and
in my opinion a horrible way of doing things. I've had my fair share of
issues to sign up initially, there's a weird etiquette of how you have to
structure your replies, and most importantly you have to remind yourself
every time to press "reply all". There are also issues with messages ending
up in junk-mail or caught by spam-filters, and you heavily depend on your
mail client to properly group messages so you can actually digest them in a
conversational form. Email is also lacking edit buttons and integrated code
blocks like we're used to with github (or markdown in general). I don't
know how other projects deal with this though.
