A big +1 for Discourse from me as well. I don't want to sign up to the mailing list and have mailbox overflow. I did have rules put in place to move the messages in a separate folder, but still the amount wasn't manageable. Furthermore reading the threads in Mail.app is a major pain as a result of different quotation styles used by various authors.

Currently I use gmane.org's nntp servers and the outdated Unison.app. However that app also doesn't support the various quotation styles, which doesn't help with following topics. I'd be very happy to use Discourse, as it allows me to opt-in to any discussion I'd like and start/stop e-mail notifications as I see fit. Also Github Issues would allow me to do that, but I can see the benefits Discourse would provide; e.g. better moderation, pinning topics for recurring topics and ownership of the forum's data (threads).
