I hate mailing lists. Are there many people on it that are not on e.g. fb? Language subreddits or [lang] tagged threads here if wanted?

The mailing list has 32 members, the FB group 26.

Language subreddits or [lang] tagged threads here if wanted?

Not sure what you're asking.

I think a language/country subreddit or language-tagged threads might better solve the objective of a country/language specific mailing list.

One of the main benefits of a mailing list is that people get informed about new events and happenings even if they don't remember or have the time to check the main site regularly. You don't get that with subreddits or site threads.

We do have RSS.

That's true. Still, I think that more people use e-mail than use RSS readers.
