Good that they're getting their own self-hosted forum.<p>I don't like all the centralization happening and reddit becoming the forum for everything.
Off-topic: Did discourse "win" forums?<p>Because I absolutely hate it's UX. 95% of the times I stumble on a Discourse forum I immediately close the tab.<p>I miss old-school paginated, hierarchical forums. It's kinda like old vs new reddit.<p>I recently looked at forum software for a community I was trying to set up and it felt like it's either stuck in the past or went too far with shiny web stuff (like discourse).<p>Just wanted a middle ground - oldschool style just less cluttered and less unnecessary info. Did I miss something? Did no one figure it out?
Knew this would use Discourse before clicking. To a first approximation I think every official language web forum I've visited in recent years has been. And it works well too!
