I have always refused to use Facebook.
If you must move to a non-email platform, a Web-based solution would be preferable.
In the best of all possible worlds, I'd like to see people affected by Google's attempt to monopolize email simply drop Google and move to another email provider.

Howdy Folks: Many of you here (especially those whose e-mail is delivered by via accounts hosted by Google) have likely noticed that the reliability of messages from this listserv has taken a significant nosedive over the past several months. After ~20 years of self-hosting this list and (for the past several months) spending many, many hours wrestling with obscure and intermittent bounces generated by Google’s MTAs, I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s time to move this service to a provider that has the requisite skills and resources to manage it in the “Google age”. Our options appear to be: 1) Host the existing list with a commercial company. 2) Move to a “non-commercial" existing listserv that has the available capacity and would be willing to take it on —e.g. an ‘edu’ type institution. 3) Move to some other, non-email based service (the FB Rivendell group is one that has come up as a possibility). WRT option 1), I’ve done some shopping around and found none with the needed functionality that would at the same time be affordable (really trying to avoid advertisement-based models). I’m open to ideas regarding the possibilities. Cheers! |---------------------------------------------------------------------| | Frederick F.
