I+1

It’s hard to be subscribed to both dev@ and users@ (so. much. email.), and
you’d need devs subscribed to both for users to have a good experience, to
get their questions well-answered.

I unsubscribed from users@ and now that is invisible to me - good for my
focus, bad for the users.

A majority of Airflow users would know GitHub and have an account, and it
would be convenient to the devs if most questions were asked there, rather
than on users@ or slack - because:

- We’re already in GitHub reviewing PRs and issues
- the q&a would have a permalink, and be indexed in search engines better
(reduce repeated questions)
- It’s be worthwhile to write better questions and write better answers
there vs on an ephemeral mailing list or slack thread

This change would enhance UX for both devs and users.
