"They" was referring to the various low traffic MySQL lists which in
my opinion does not work. As far as Linux, when I briefly subscribed
to the kernel mailing list there was such a volume of traffic that it
was difficult to manage as a noob.

I do not have an opinion about PG. I think that those two examples
could be seen as how not to run email lists effectively.
