From a mod over @ r/dwarffortress...

Long story short, Twitch (an Amazon product) relies on IGDB (Internet Game Database, another Amazon product) for the information they use for streaming game categories. IGDB has decided that Dwarf Fortress (2006), Dwarf Fortress (2022), and Dwarf Fortress:Adventure Mode (2024) are all separate games instead of incrimental releases of the same game, leading to there being multiple categories an making stream discovery harder. Someone can literally search the 2022 one with the current logo and see that "no one" is streaming DF, while half a dozen people are streaming in the 2006 category.

Kitfox contacted IGDB, who told them to contact Twitch. Twitch told them to make a post on twitch.uservoice.com (which I'd never heard of).

I like email the way it is and believe it functions as most people desire.

Everything you mention already exists for email (ie discussion groups exist, encryption exists, etc...)

The key thing is that it works now and you can easily host your own mail server to achieve whatever you desire feature wise

that is a very beautiful thing in itself

Mainly when I'm running as it keeps me more mindful of my pace/effort and while commuting to dull the pain.

I'm in the same boat regarding the wife :) ... classic on my crappy laptop while I "watch" yellowjackets or whatever she's in to at the time.
