Just a FYI.  I have in the past asked questions about Windoze XP on this
very list.  Why, I'm not joining a windoze mailing list for just one
question and I know a lot of people on this list know about windoze as
well.  I have seen other topics raised on this list before.  It's not
often but it does happen.  I see Gentoo threads that don't interest me
at all and I just mark them as read and move right along but I don't
tell folks that I don't want to see them.  I could start with systemd. 
If I see systemd in the subject, I mark it read and move right along
usually without reading even the first post. Why, I don't use systemd so
I am certainly not interested in it.  There are other threads that I do
the same thing with. 

Just saying.
