Echt jetzt, Google Groups? Die Spammer verwenden Eure Mailinglisten, um Spam zu verschicken, und ich kann mich nicht abmelden, weil die unsubscribe-Adresse ein rate limit hat?

A good source of information about collections management issues is the Museum Collections Care listserv, the successor group to the CS-AAM and RC-AAM listservs: https://groups.google.com/g/museum-collections-care #museums #collections #googlegroups #museumcollections

I maintain an email discussion list on google groups for a small nonprofit community group. We have about 20 participants. I'm looking to bail from google groups, mainly because of the unremovable footer in every message that gets repeated ad infinitum. Can anyone suggest an uncomplicated alternative? I want to keep it as an email listserv (not a discord-type thing, etc.) Thanks! #email #listserv #googlegroups

Anybody has experience with FramaGroups/FramaGroupes/Sympa? I see no way to add members in bulk, despite being described in the documentation...

Is there an alternative to Google Groups that has reasonable pricing, unlike Groups.io, and that's exclusively a normal mailing list without bells and whistles?

The last more-or-less full work week of the year is about to start, and I know I’ll be working the week after that to meet the last deadlines I have in 2023.
12/11/2023: Teens Are Online ‘Almost Constantly,’ Usually on These Apps, PCMag
I got an advance look at this Pew Research Center study on teenage social-media use and found it enlightening–including the part where the teenagers in the study group said they were spending slightly less time on almost every social-media app compared to last year.
12/12/2023: Google Maps Location Data to Be Stored on Your Device, Not the Cloud, PCMag
Google surprised me with this announcement, in a good way. I needed other people–for example, Electronic Frontier Foundation general counsel Jennifer Lynch–to point out how this move could spell the end of “geofence warrants” asking for Google Maps records of everybody in a particular place at a particular time.
12/13/2023: 8th Grade Career Day, Thomas Jefferson Middle School
My last speaking gig of the year had me explaining the business I have chosen to three classes’ worth of eighth graders, with compensation in the form of free coffee and breakfast pastries.
(Patreon readers got a detailed recap of this event, including some of the smarter questions the students asked.)
12/15/2023: AT&T: Spam Texts Are Down By a Third, PCMag
After talking to one of AT&T’s executives about the drop in spam-text reports they’d seen, I wanted to see if the other two nationwide carriers or its regulators at the Federal Communications Commission had seen similar trends. Sadly, they had not.
12/16/2023: End of an Era: Google Groups to Drop Usenet Support, PCMag
The second bit of unexpected Google news this week took me all the way back to almost 30 years ago, when my online experience began with exploring Usenet on my dial-up AOL account.

Erinnert Ihr Euch noch an das #Usenet, #Mailinglisten, #IRC, #YahooGroups, #GoogleGroups, #GeoCities oder Firmen wie #AlteVista oder #Lycos?
Ähnlich wird es auch #Twitter ergehen. Selbst wenn es irgendwo noch ein Nischendasein fristen wird, die große Zeit von Twitter - und auch von #Facebook - ist vorbei.

@utdbrent I had forgotten that about Mozilla! Most of my #Usenet reading was earlier, from 1980s #WesleyanU mainframe terminals, or PCs emulating VT-100s... and much later #GoogleGroups became a NewsGroup reader, including archival collections.
I remember reading this item when it was originally posted... #Berners-Lee #Web
https://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/1991/08/art-6484.txtand when #XMosaic came out, I was invited to betatest the windows version, so decided I had to find another grad school for more bandwidth. #UNC
