I believe there is a plugin for that with Discourse:

I was thinking about HyperKitty and if it had RSS support that would make it
workable. I already use RSS quite a bit and having the feed come through
that and to be able to select items through there and launch into
HyperKitty would be very workable - and apparently RSS support for
HyperKitty / Mailman 3 has been in the works for years now, but AFAIK not
much has happened with it. I submitted another post regarding that.
Regarding NNTP I've haven't used newsreaders in years and to be honest
dealing with yet another tool isn't something I would want to do...
probably the same as people here not wanting to use Discourse.
