Hi Scott and everyone reading this post!
I think this post has a great opening question and I thought this next proposition was fitting to its theme.
About the forum’s categories, the forum in itself does not have a category. It would be nice to have a Forum Category where people could talk about the forum in itself! Then it could be improved with the community input.
For instance, many people on Telegram channel argue that the Forum is not really fluid.
I think I might have an idea to get this more fluid. Could we simply add this feature to the forum:
When people reply to a comment, the reply gets under the comment, and can even folds if more comments follow (like on Reddit or Youtube). I think it’s hard as of now to read a post and get a good “feeling/intuition” of the conversation’s flow when replies are simply added linearly in time.
So as a graph tree, there would be a thread of the main comments, and individual threads for each series of replies per main comments.
As of now, it’s hard to get a good quick idea of who said what to who.
I hope it’s a good place to post this.
Have a good day!
