I didn’t realize that this existed until now, is there a way for this to be more visible? For instance, incorporated in the notifications settings (where I spent way too much time trying to find this a couple of months ago)? Is there a way to auto-add people who join the EA forum to this mailing list and unsubscribe as necessary?
The mailing list being run through Mailchimp makes certain kinds of automated integration difficult (for example, it would be a lot of work to allow people to remove themselves from the mailing list by turning off a “receive the Forum Digest” setting).
I currently promote the digest in a lot of different places, on and off the Forum, but our next step is to edit the signup process so that people become aware of it the moment they create accounts. That’s waiting on some broader architectural changes, but should be live in a few weeks to a few months.
We might also add the digest to the sidebar at some point, though that space is valuable and it might be wrong to put something there that won’t be relevant to any user more than once.

Thanks for asking this!
