I really like this modern styled forum software. A few thoughts:
For some reason, the site doesn’t look too pretty in my Firefox. Some icons are missing, pages take a lot of time to load, etc. But, of course, it could be an issue with my browser.
I love the WhatsApp-like favicon used on this site
We’ve moved all static resources to CloudFlare due to speed issues. It’s interesting to see that you’re still having them o.O
In your opinion, is it a viable alternative to mailing lists?
Thanks for the link @rugyada
In fact as we need more testing now, I think we can communicate a little more publicly about this forum, telling that it’s still in testing stage, needing suggestions, and enough positive feedback for approbation, wdyt?
In my opinion (and not only ) discourse is by far better than phpBB, not to speak than vanillaforum.
Maybe it’s worthy to read also THIS topic by @raphael
[…] this idea is mainly for avoiding two separated discussions channels.
Those who prefer mailing list may be able to open new topics and reply through email, and other will be able to do this via forum web application. Furthermore, if it’s well done and managed, it should help developers and packagers being more in contact with the community.
