Is there a simple possibility to join a mailinglist besider writing a mail to list-join@example.com? I know you can register and then join a list, but thats only possible for public lists and I would like to have such a very simple webform for a specific list where you just enter your email address and then get the confirmation mail. I guess there was something like this with mailman2

It is also possible for unadvertised lists. You can go to
lists/list@domain
and subscribe even though the list is not advertised.

You can do this by having your web form do the subscription via the REST API. See <https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/rest/docs/rest.html> and <https://mailman.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/mailman/rest/docs/membership.html#joining-a-mailing-list>.

thanks, is there something like this for unsubscribng in postorius?
If you are a member of list@example.com and you go to lists/list@example.com in Postorius and log-in if necessary, there is an Unsubscribe button on that page.

but that means you have to login first and need a password, ok. That is not very convenient, so I think about setting up a simple (external) form where users can enter their emailaddress and its then used to send a message to list-leave@example.com.

That would certainly work, but you should ensure that the list's unsubscription_policy is not 'open' so people can't unsubscribe others without their knowledge.
The default policy is 'confirm' so it should be OK if you haven't changed it.
