So can I. The list has definitely got quieter in the last 20 years.
Perhaps the prissy and politically correct simply don't have it right?
I don't think you can attribute the list die-off to the introduction of
the CoC. You could equally surmise that the kind of behaviour that the
CoC forbids -- which used to be rampant -- has driven people away. But
the list die-off started long before the CoC was introduced. I suspect
it's simply that more and more users go elsewhere to places like Reddit,
rather than dusty old mailing lists.
