Yes, but Discourse is terrible. BBCode FTW. Also Flotilla has forums-lite

Why is Discourse so bad? I don't love it, but it's hard to find anything better.

How do you mwke the letters do that? I mean white and purple?

Low information density, it rearranges conversations too much, it uses infinite scroll rather than pagination, it also seems to be used in contexts where there are lots of canned responses vs old-school forums where you have very organic conversations (complete with "my knee replacement went well thanks"). I think the IA is just confusing as all get out. Like, what are the statistics below associated with? The post before? After? The whole thread?

But my opinion is really just based in using it and feeling really confused every time.

Nice blob URL.

But I didn't know they had AI autocomplete canned responses, since when they have that? I didn't see that on https://delvingbitcoin.org/ last time I checked.

bugs, bugs everywhere

By canned, I just mean either self-promotion or customer support put-offs

Let's try this again

Well, it has a lot of empty spaces, just the way you like.

But also I think you might just be looking at broken communities?
