To add my voice (also a very long term user of Digikam) I **much**
prefer being able to ask and answer questions via mailing list or
Usenet.

There's a number of reasons:-
  1 - I don't have to 'go and find' the forum (or Reddit area, or
  whatever). **Everything** comes to me, is sorted by my mail system
  into separate areas, and I can answer at my leisure when I want.

  2 - Usenet in particular, but also my E-Mail program, provide proper
  threading of messages.

  3 - I can us the same editor **everywhere**, I don't have to learn a
  different set of commands etc. for each support area.

I do have a Reddit login but I only go there very rarely. In general
for Digikam support I come here as it's gatewayed by Gmane to Usenet
and thus I get all the (considerable) advantages that offers.
