I don't understand, isn't this an argument in favor of GitHub? Most
mailing lists (including, notably, FFmpeg's) require registration in
order to submit messages, which is one of the reasons I hate them. It's
not just that registration is annoying in general, it's also that
registration to a mailing list is *more* annoying and cumbersome than
creating an account on any post-90s website.
Conversely on GitHub, everybody already has an account, so the overhead
for first-time contribution is *actually* zero. And on every other
self-hosted GitLab instance I've come across, I could cross-authenticate
with some other account I already have.
