Sorry for the late response, I think this comment by babatong has the gist of what I don't like about Discourse : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10131932 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10131932 Everything is "fluid" and flat (as in hierarchy flat). I like the more traditional hierarchical type of forum. On top of that, with Discourse, you're never too sure if/when there is a new message and if you didn't miss anything.
