The last thing I want is to get another email list.
For me email is a big ball of stress, there is always a huge amount of spam to delete, even if I keep up on unsubscribing from lists and blocking addresses that send me spam.
When I am reading email I am generally trying to get some specific task done and having email newsletters get in the way means I'm going to skip over the newsletters and never read them.
What the world needs is an RSS reader which is like that Talking Heads song Psycho Killer: "See something once, why see it again?"
You would probably be better served by fixing your damaged relationship with the techology rather than declaring it to be the wrong answer a priori. Perhaps a middle ground, like Thunderbird or Vivaldi's RSS readers, would suit you. Don't use the clients for mail, just try it out as a feed reader only, to avoid the negative expectations.
One of the big advantage of the mail-style presentation is the client indexes the content and gives you full-text search of the stories you've read. Once you get used to that it's hard to go back.
