- vger.kernel.org delivers about 4.5 million messages per day
- 70% of that is linux-kernel@vger, with about 3.2 million messages delivered per day
- a very remote second is netdev@vger (300,000 messages delivered per day)
- even a more remote third is kvm@vger (133,000 messages delivered per day)
Current migration stats:
Out of the total of 203 public vger lists:
- 48 lists will be sunset (due to obsolescence/inactivity)
- 40 lists are already migrated to new infra
- 115 still reside on legacy infra
The 40 migrated lists are about 788,000 messages daily, or ~20% of all traffic, so 80% of all mail traffic is still going through the legacy infra.
I hope to complete all migrations by this holiday season.

monsieuriconSo many facts untold,
Queries left unbidden,
Concealed below the fold.
My head droops to the table,
But I must remain informed:
"Is the kernel stable?"
"How is babby formed?"

Worf Email
WorfEmail@botsin.spaceGeordi,
No one has been receiving my emails for many months. This is a significant security risk and it must be fixed.

monsieuriconGoogle's IMAP has been increasingly unusable for me in the past couple of weeks. Anyone else having the same problem?

b0rk@jvns.cawhat git jargon do you find confusing? thinking of writing a blog post that explains some of git's weirder terminology: "detached HEAD state”, "fast-forward", "index/staging area/staged", “ahead of 'origin/main' by 1 commit”, etc
(really only looking for terms that you personally find confusing, not terms that you think someone else might be confused about)

by me!
We find wisdom wherever we encounter it. And since I’m at the ballpark a lot of the time, that’s where I get my tech business lessons.

marcoarment@mastodon.socialThis new Slack redesign is great if you hate screen space, clarity, contrast, ease of use, information hierarchy, messages, channels, and communication

w7voa@journa.hostSix months after the CBC and Radio-Canada scaled back its use of the social media site X, the public broadcaster says it will mostly remain off the platform formerly known as Twitter because it doesn't bring in a lot of traffic. https://www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/business/cbc-mainly-remains-off-x-citing-low-traffic-six-months-after-scaling-back-presence/article_10695842-3deb-50d0-b624-b4102cd553c2.html
