They provide plain good ol' GNU Mailman lists. You can bring your own domain or subdomain. They also have a good handle on privacy issues (GDPR requests and so on).

#14You should check out Topicbox: https://www.topicbox.com (disclosure: I worked on it). It's really good hosted mailing lists from the team at Fastmail. My one line description is "Topicbox is to Mailman what Slack is to IRC".
- email address of any user never disclosed to any other user
- name/username shown should always be predefined — not read from mail/replied received
- easy user management — add/remove/disable/ban/flag-and-put-on-hold etc
— communication not publicly available or indexed
- is not a forum at all — can be read on the web, but can’t be replied from anywhere other than an email client
— way to reply to specific users without knowing their email
- users can stop all or some users to reach out directly to them
- other mailman features
Good to have features:
— enable things like some sort of “slow mode” either for some users or group wide

So Topicbox is annoying to use, overengineered and just plain aggravating?
