Please don't use random links.
Maybe patchew will stay around. Maybe it won't. This is the first I
ever see of it.
It seems to be maintained by Red Hat, and yes, at least it contains
the email message ID as part of the URL.
But when I tried to go to patchew.org and then click on lkml.org, I
get " https://patchew.org/lkml.org/" and a big "Not found" page.
And when I clicked on "Linux", I get a working page, I can't even see
the raw messages without downloading some "patch mbox".
So "maintained" is perhaps too strong a word.
Please use lore.kernel.org links instead. Maybe that won't stay around
forever either, but at least it works.
Lore also deals with a *lot* more lists, and has a lot more history. I
tried to look up old stuff on patchew.org, and it just doesn't exist.
Put another way: patchew is objectively *much* worse than lore. So
don't try to make it a thing.
