I am an old fart. When I look at the Rust discourse [1], the UI looks exactly the same to me as our mailing list interface [2]. When I look at the Discourse advertisements, it talks about stuff like notifying you by email when there are messages... which is exactly what a mailing list does all the time. Can you help an old person understand why this is better?
