"talk" probably gets more pairs of eyes on it than the Q&A subforum
https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewforum.php?id=10 (which is probably
the nearest equivalent). Both require registration with something that
new participants already have (an email address in one case; some OSM
login credentials in the other). Both have had similar numbers of posts
today.
Some people will prefer forums to mailing lists, some vice versa; why
not suggest both?
I'd suggest "talk" as a more sensible introductory mailing list to
"tagging" as the latter is higher volume and more in depth in a
particular area of OSM.
Best Regards,
Andy
