Is groups.io the best modern groups-discussions-over-email service? (Like YahooGroups and eGorups before that.) Or if not, what is? #group #email #discussion #recommendation
Groups.io | Email Discussion Groups & Listserv Alternative
Groups.io is a modern email group service and listserv alternative with no ads. Create mailing lists with calendars, files, wikis, and more. Better than Google Groups or Yahoo Groups.

Bible Rocket can index #Bible references in English and French text, and link them to your preferred translations and sources on the Bible Gateway website. It's a little demo of mine for the `refspy` #python library.
