@ShadSterling @ireneista @erincandescent the problem lies entirely on how the threads are presented so a dedicated viewer would solve the problem

Definitely would make my use case (seeing if X or Y hardware has been added to so and so driver) a lot easier.

@ireneista @erincandescent To help you understand better. Never seen anything cool happen on email, and trying to navigate the LKML is a living nightmare. A BBS or a forum? you get everything neatly organized. Reading a thread on a mailing list? either you're missing 90% of the context because it's a nested reply, or the first item is duplicated everywhere, or somehow it's an adjacent thread and nobody knows who is replying to. Mailing lists are a nightmare to read, consult, and make sense of.

@whitequark Posts are not worthless, they are just not meant to last for eternity. If you want something to endure with time, write it down, long form. elsewhere.

Words should be able to be lost on the wind, and conversations should be allowed to expire. to let you be unburdened of the past, and let the things it held, be free once more.

If something specific needs to be preserved, it should be treated differently, as the exception, not the rule.
