Something I've noticed recently, is that groups.io mail doesn't arrive
consistently on time. I'll get emails that are a couple days late, even though
posts on either side show up earlier. It's maybe a 1% of the time thing, if
that.
Jim,
I have chosen not to get mails because it fills my inbox too much - instead I check groups.io when needed, e.g. for this thread /g/nanovna-users/topic/trace_format_options/95263276
This way I get messages up to the minute.

Sure - but there are people (like me) who use email as their modus operandi. I'd rather read and delete or save. It's just habit, and "not on time" delivery does kind of disrupt that. It's more of a push model than a pull model.

It's just a personal preference. Everyone has their own workflow that works for them.

I moderate another mailing list (for Tesla Coilers, as it happens), and I'd rather get the push from the list so that I can respond in a timely way. If I'm busy, when I check my mail (which I do fairly frequently), I'll see it.

If it were pull, I'd have to remember to go periodically check. I found that if you've got a bunch of disparate places to check, it's nicer to have the notifications come to one place (my email client, in my case).

But, as I say, it's a workflow preference.
