I call designs like Discourse’ the duploification of the web. Everything is twice as big as it needs to be so it’s “easier” to use.
Easier in quotes because it is actually a lot more difficult (for me). The excess white space and lack of differentiation between bits of content just make it harder to follow conversations. I might have brain problems, I dunno, but I struggle with it in any case.
But what I dislike more is companies and projects abandoning GitHub issues for Discourse forums. The disconnect between source and issue is frustrating as someone that files a fair number of detailed issues. Issues that, btw, require enough information that I end up using GitHub anyway (gists).
