What I'm trying to say here is: Email might look like it's easy to use, but in the context of a mailing list it's not necessarily so, even from the technical side. These text entry boxes on Github et al. definitely feel easier and more inviting to use.Yes, but the cost is that you need to proactively to visit each and every GitHub repository to see whether something new was posted in the subjects of your interest, and then refresh the page every so often.
Not really. You visit every such repository once, then click "Watch" on the whole repo, or "Subscribe" to individual issues, and see notifications go into your email inbox whenever something happens (there are some granularity settings as well).
Email is still very much a part of most people's work day. Just (usually) not at the intensity of "email-driven workflow".
