It is indeed a forum. It's likely different than anything you've used

If you want to watch a specific category, you can navigate to the it and
click this icon in the top right to change your level of interest and
notifications. You can also modify this in your personal settings here:

The good thing is you can basically use the forum entirely through your
email client, just like a normal mailing list (with the exception of
starting new posts through email at the moment - we are deciding if this is
a good idea to turn on).
Does this help?
