# About This Forum
As of 2020-03-12, the legacy mailing lists for SQLite are deprecated.
Users are encouraged to use this forum for all future discussions about
SQLite. Use the links in the menu bar at the top of this page to
navigate the forum.
Use this forum to:
1. Ask questions about using or programming with SQLite.
2. Report bugs against SQLite.
3. Report documentation issues with SQLite or suggest
ways to improve the documentation.
4. Ask for new features in SQLite.
5. Seek instruction on how SQLite operates internally.
6. Discuss other software that is hosted in the
SQLite source code repository such as
[Lemon][lemon] or [althttpd.c][althttpd].
This forum replaces the old SQLite mailing list, which is no longer
supported.
## Why A Forum Instead Of A Mailing List?
Advantages to this forum include:
* Messages can be formatted using plain-text,
[Markdown][md], or [Fossil-Wiki][wiki] and the display will

posting.
* Users can sign up for to receive forum posts via email, so that
the forum works a lot like a traditional mailing list. But
unlike a traditional mailing list, email is not required.
* Full-text search is built-in
* Multiple display modes: [hierarchical](/forumpost/46c8eb54e8?t=h),
[chronological](/forumpost/46c8eb54e8?t=c),
[unformatted](/forumpost/46c8eb54e8?t=r), or
[on a timeline](/timeline?ss=v&y=f&n=20&vfx&nsm).
* Improved privacy protections. Users can participate with
full anonymity. Or, if you choose to sign in, the system
never reveals your email address to other users.
* The entire history of discussion can be cloned and downloaded
for use off-line.
* The forum seems to work better than email on mobile
devices.
* The Forum software works with any web server.
(MailMan, which was the software used in the legacy mailing list
apparently requires the use of Apache - or at least *we* were
never able to get it to work with another web server such as
[althttpd][althttpd] used by the rest of the SQLite website.)
* Automatic back-ups using Fossil's sync mechanism.
* The use of Forum software reduces the SQLite project's
dependence on external software (MailMan) and services
(www.mail-archive.com).
